Williams College Museum of Art Presents a Watercolor Slam02:22PM / Wednesday, August 05, 2009
The Williams College Museum of Art is pleased to present a Watercolor Slam on Friday, August 14 from 1:00-4:00 pm. Please join us for an afternoon of experimentation in watercolor painting inspired by the current exhibition, “Prendergast in Italy,” which is on view through September 20.
On Friday, August 14, meet in the museum at 1:00 pm for brief talks on Prendergast and watercolor technique by Curator Nancy Mowll Mathews and Williams College Professor of Art, Ed Epping. Then, visitors are invited to paint their own watercolors and attend demonstrations by artists Ed Epping, Gracia Dayton, Alison Kolesar, and David Lane. Basic instruction for beginners will also be provided by Northern Berkshire Creative Arts (NBCA). Everyone can test their skills when Professor Epping offers three “Quick-Fire” watercolor challenges. Refreshments will be available. Novices, dabblers, and experts are welcome!
This event is free and open to the public. For more information, visit www.wcma.org.
