Please Note: The November 2 session will be conducted online via Zoom.

October and November are magical in the Enid A. Haupt Garden, where gingko leaves might be turning gold. Sketch in the garden using watercolors to capture the changing light of the season. Learn about urban sketching and get comfortable painting outdoors. Meet at the S. Dillon Ripley Center for instruction in drawing and painting, then go outside. Sketchbooks are provided; please bring your own travel watercolor kit for painting outdoors and dress for the weather. See supply list for details.
