The Museum partners with the Arts Council of Princeton to provide free virtual drawing classes, taught by artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo. With an emphasis on drawing with pastel on paper, each week’s lesson in this series will be inspired by an artwork in the Museum’s collections that depicts light. 

This series is part of Arts and Health Mercer, a monthlong collaboration among Mercer County arts and cultural organizations that celebrates the vital role art plays in our health and well-being. Visit the Arts and Health Mercer website for a full listing of related events
