Virtual Event
In celebration of the Navy’s birthday, we invite veterans to join a virtual tour of maritime-themed artworks and an artmaking experience presented by the Albright-Knox and the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park. Participants will learn some introductory drawing and painting skills that center around the power of nature and the beauty of the sea, inspired by Sandra Cinto’s Tempest in Red, 2009, and other works from the Albright-Knox's collection.
Artists of all levels of experience are welcome. Bring a pencil, pen, or whatever you like to draw with; some watercolors, markers, or crayons for painting or coloring; and some paper.
Registration
Space is limited and pre-registration is required. To register, please contact Access and Community Programs Coordinator Karen Duval at kduval@albrightknox.org. Once registered, you will receive an email with details on how to join the event and a list of recommended materials for the artmaking activity.
