Explore current exhibitions through drawing! Look closely at works of art and create experimental sketches inspired by what you see. This month, visit Human Interest: Portraits from the Whitney’s Collection and learn how artists push the limits of what a portrait can be by experimenting with unusual materials.

This program has been developed specifically for kids ages 6 to 10. Siblings are welcome to join the group but must have a ticket.
