Visitors of all ages are invited to participate in this hands-on informal workshop with SBMA Teaching Artists. Each month explore a different medium—clay, metal, ink, wood, photography, paper—inspired by works of art in the Museum’s collection or special exhibitions.

In August, experiment with mixing a limited palette of paints then creating an abstract composition on black paper, inspired by Fernando de Szyszlo’s "Mar de Lurin" (1989).
