Create (and de-stress!) with virtual art classes inspired by our collections. 

For the fall installment of our popular virtual art-making series, explore pastels with guidance from artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo. Each week’s lesson will be inspired by a work in the Museum’s collections. This week, examine Nick Cave's Soundsuit (2013) to experiment with color and pattern.

Take a look at the suggested materials list, then join us for this free Zoom class.  

This event will include live closed captions in both English and Spanish. English captions are available directly in the Zoom toolbar by clicking the “CC” icon. To access Spanish-language captioning, open Streamtext, where you can select “Spanish” to see the live captioning.  

Para acceder a los subtítulos en varios idiomas, ingrese al seminario web de Zoom durante un evento en vivo, luego abra un navegador web separado para visitar esta página donde puede seleccionar “español” o el idioma de su elección.  

Cosponsored by the Arts Council of Princeton.
