Join us for this exciting edition of Sketching Sessions in partnership with our neighbors at the Enoch Pratt Free Library and Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University! As always, we invite novices, students, and practicing artists of all ages to spend the evening drawing in our galleries. Participants will receive light instruction on techniques to expand their sketching skills in a multisensory environment. In this double-sized special edition, visitors will be able to sketch throughout the museum’s second level, including the Ancient World and Sculpture Court galleries, as they enjoy music from students of the Peabody Institute. All you need to bring is an interest in drawing—we’ll provide the materials for you!

You have two opportunities to brush up on your sketching skills in October. On Thursday, October 16, the Pratt Library will host Drawn to Music at its Central Library from 6–7:30 p.m. The event is a unique artistic experience in which visitors sketch the performers in the moment.

This program is offered in conjunction with the Big Draw Festival, the world’s largest celebration of drawing, bringing people together through the power of creativity. Every October, organizers across the globe sign up to be part of the festival, hosting everything from hands-on workshops and exhibitions to large-scale collaborative projects.
