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

For the summer installment of our popular virtual art-making series, explore watercolors with guidance from artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo. Each week’s lesson will be inspired by a work in the Museum’s collections.

For this week’s theme of creative composition, we’ll take a close look at Jane Irish’s site-specific installation for the new Museum, Cosmos Beyond Atrocity (2024).
