    • The mighty artists of this Workshop will explore the many possibilities of painting to create works that transcend time and place. Not only will participants develop a painterly practice through techniques such as acrylic, watercolor, and encaustic, but also the power of how to impact the viewer through the use of mood and myth.

    • Express your passion for fashion! In this Workshop, participants use personal style as inspiration for developing their very own fashion portfolio. Learn fashion illustration techniques and apparel styling, while keeping an eye on the hottest fashion blogs and magazines. This Workshop will end with a special runway show on the museum’s roof-deck.
