The Zimmerli Drawing Society for Adults

Ongoing
Time: 10:00am

The second and fourth Saturday of each month between October and December, and February and April.

In the Italian Renaissance, drawing or disegno was considered the underpinning of great painting and the essential means of expressing an artistic idea. While much contemporary art eschews drawing, it never ceases to be a fundamental tool of human perception, and knowledge, akin to writing itself. Now the Zimmerli offers advanced and beginning artists an opportunity to draw, both from the live model and the museum’s vast collections. Each session is overseen by master artist Elizabeth Hutchinson. Meetings will take place twice a month between October and December and February and April. Members will each receive a set of drawing pencils when they join. While the museum will also provide drawings boards, a live model and professional instruction, participants must bring their own drawing pads and portable easels.
