SDMA May S. Marcy Sculpture Garden
Join Museum educators for an art-making event in the Museum sculpture garden.
Explore painting in the garden en plein air, or outdoors, just like the Impressionists. Observe landscapes and light while using contemporary materials to create your own mini masterpiece while also learning about Impressionist paintings in the Museum’s permanent collection.
In addition, create an elephant miniature painting. Using metallic watercolors, paint pre-printed miniature drawings of elephants. Embellish and add your own details to create a unique painting inspired by Indian miniature paintings in the Museum’s permanent collection.
No reservation required. All materials will be provided.
Great for artists of all ages, Community and Family Drop-In Workshops invite artists to enjoy hands-on art making experiences inspired by the thinking and creating processes of artists on view at the Museum.
