Perseverance is the key for maturing artists who are finding their own way through the means of heightened self-expression, competitive skill set, and individuation. This workshop encourages students to make personal connections with artists featured in the museum’s collection as they divide and conquer self-doubt, perfectionism, and the need to imbue meaning through symbolism and representation. Sign up and build relationships with others who think like you.

Cost: $25.00 per person (Cost for Members: $20.00)
