“Sketch-In” at the Museum | Civic Center

Submitted by the Event Organizer

If you ever go to the Louvre, you’ll notice art students with easels, paints & canvas, pencils & sketchpads busily copying the artworks. Of course this is in France, a country that’s got a Ministry of Culture (ha!) but you rarely see that in our local museums–a strange thing indeed.

Luckily there’s the Museum of Performance and Design in the Civic Center: always a sketch book friendly institution going back to their founding over 60 years ago…

Join us Friday, Feb. 25 from 12:00-5:00 pm for a special day of drawing in the galleries of the Museum of Performance and Design. All ages and skill levels are welcome. This free event is sponsored by FLAX art and design.

Bring your ipad to sketch electronically and post your work to the Museum’s Facebook and Twitter streams or use one of the Museum’s in house sketch books (provided with pencils by our friends at FLAX) and become part of a future FLAX exhibition inspired by the MPD galleries. In addition to our acclaimed exhibitions currently on display, costumes from the archives will be displayed.
