Step up your pastel game with our free virtual art-making classes! Held in conjunction with the exhibition, Princeton Collects.
Our popular virtual art-making series returns with lessons by artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo, who will guide participants on working with pastels—a versatile and beginner-friendly material. Each week’s lesson will be inspired by an object from the exhibition, Princeton Collects.
This week’s lesson is all about creating unique portraits, inspired by Zanele Muholi’s Massa and Minah VI, Brazil (2010).
