Drawing: Exploring Sketching

Join us this summer at Crystal Bridges for a series of creative workshops aimed at enhancing your artistic skills! The **Drawing: Exploring Sketching** class runs for six weeks from June 11 to July 23 (no class the week of July 4) and invites participants to rediscover drawing through playful, observational practices. Led by illustrator Chad Maupin, students will engage in studio exercises, figure drawing, and outdoor sketching in dynamic museum settings. Tickets are priced at $213 ($177.50 for members and adults 25 and under), with all materials included.

Simultaneously, the **Glass & Metalwork: Metal Jewelry** workshop also spans six weeks from June 11 to July 23 (with no class during the same week) and teaches essential jewelry-making techniques such as using the jeweler's saw and basic enameling. This course accommodates both beginners and those looking to refine their skills, with tickets available for $237 ($197.50 for members and adults under 25), including all materials.

Additionally, engage in the **Ceramics: Flower Vases** workshop, featuring three sessions on June 11, June 18, and June 25. Under the guidance of Teaching Artist Linda Nguyen Lopez, participants will create sculptural flower vases using slab-building techniques and learn about surface decoration. Tickets for this workshop cost $193 ($161.25 for members and adults 25 and under), with all materials provided.
