Description

Join us for our Art in the Park series, where talented local artists will guide you in creating masterpieces inspired by the breathtaking Riverfront scenery. Get your creative juices flowing with a range of exciting mediums. Don't forget to register in advance, or you might miss the chance to unleash your inner artist!
Join Megan Perkins at the Riverfront Visitor Center to learn about urban sketching and how to capture the story of a place through drawing and painting on location. Finish the class with a spread in your sketchbook that will remind you of the time you spent in this beautiful park. Although watercolor is not required, Megan will be doing a sketching demo that includes watercolor.
Students have the option to display their work alongside Megan’s at the Pavilion Art Space in Riverfront. If that is desired, please bring loose leaf paper or a sketchbook where the pages can be torn out for your sketching surface. All skill levels welcome!
