Open Studio For Teens returns virtually this fall! Teens are invited to a free art-making program on Zoom with Whitney educators. Each week, teens will experiment, create, and learn together with at-home art materials inspired by the Whitney’s collection. Tell a friend and join us!

This week's activity is Masking Textures. Inspired by Julie Mehretu's use of line and tone variation, teens will create layers of textured drawings. Mehretu’s practice often focuses on abstraction, architecture, landscape, scale, and, most recently, figuration.

No previous art experience is required—everyone is welcome. Registration is required.

Share your work with us using #WhitneyFromHome.
