Bring your sketchbook and pencils – or borrow ours – and drop in to draw inspiration from WAM’s collection during this program led by artist Veronica Dowty. Veronica teaches art at The Independent School and has taught art for 9 years. Her passions include ink drawing, painting, baking, and cosplay. In her years as an artist she has found joy in teaching a variety of materials and loves sharing her love of creating.

Only pencils and small (lap-sized) sketchpads permitted. Gallery stools provided; limited quantity available.
