THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN CANCELED.

In this workshop, use Museum artworks and written prompts to create a handmade journal where you can record your personal ideas and observations! Through demonstrations and detailed instructions, learn to sew and alter journals. Basic drawing exercises with watercolor pencils explore space, light, color, and line, offering both drawing and painting experiences. Creative individual expression is encouraged through exercises and open-ended prompts, guiding students towards an independent and confident journaling practice.
A longtime art museum educator, instructor Susan McChesney has spent her adult life sharing the joys of creating with all ages and abilities. Interested especially in drawing, she has moved from city to seacoast to mountains to broaden her perspectives and experiences, drawing and introducing students to successful experiences creating. She earned an undergraduate from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and a graduate degree in education.
Adult Studio
The Museum's studio program for adults offers a core curriculum in drawing, painting, printmaking, and three-dimensional media, and also explores the intersections between them. Local and visiting artists help students of all levels and abilities develop skills in media that reflect techniques and themes featured in the Museum’s Collection and special exhibitions. Classes meet for 3–12 weeks, and are designed for anyone interested in exploring specific media in depth; daylong workshops introduce new media or processes.
