*Drawing From Life 1M23

Age Group: 
Teens (17+), Adults

Join our friendly and casual group as we explore the Museum of Fine Arts and the Gardner Museum, through drawing.

Drawing provides us the opportunity to study and absorb art work in a unique way. To draw something is to be in dialogue with it.

Each week will visit a different exhibit at either the MFA or the Gardner museums to capture art, people, and architecture through live sketches.

Possible Excursions include the MFA galleries of SE Asia, African and Oceania, Egypt, and Greece, and Musical Instruments, the Gardner Museum Courtyard, and the Gardner Museum's Monk’s Garden.
