Learn how Edward Hopper used shadow and light to set the scene in his drawings, from the luminous morning sky to the dark shadows of night! Visit Hopper Drawing and American Legends: From Calder to O’Keeffe to compare how different artists use light and dark in their art works.

Over the summer, Whitney Wees will start a wee bit earlier, at 10 am. This will enable families to explore Hopper Drawing and other exhibitions before the Museum opens to the public! 

August 3, 1011 am: Wait list only
August 17, 1011 am: Wait list only

$10 per family (free for Family Series members or Friend-level members and higher). Admission to program includes Museum admission. Registration is recommended; drop-ins are welcome if space is available.
