Inspired by Room 13 in Scotland where children are free to use an art studio to make what has meaning for them (painting, printmaking, monster drawing, comic books, boxing rings, parachuting clay Smurfs), children will elect a management team to order supplies, decide on fundraising and to oversee the room. Children must be 7 years old to attend.

January 24 to March 6

Allow your child to put their imagination on paper as they draw ninjas, dragons, fast food restaurants, horses, killer moths, self portraits, rolling hills, Sponge Bob or whatever they set their minds to. The museum is overflowing with sketchbooks, paper, pencils, kneaded erasers, pastels and charcoal.
Workshops for Adults
“Open Life Drawing Sessions”
Supervisor: Jason Watson, Assistant Professor, Art Department
Tuesdays, 7:00 to 10:00 p.m.

ASU staff, students and community are invited to come and draw from a nude model, every Tuesday evening from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. Artists with all levels of life drawing experience can join in on these ongoing, open studio sessions. You provide the materials; we provide the space, an exciting drawing community and the inspiration. Drop in to work on your own figurative projects week to week, freshen up some old drawing skills, or just to try life drawing for the first time. Sessions are non-instructional and will include a mix of long and short poses using both male and female models.
Open life drawing sessions are ongoing; there is no specific registration period. Life drawing voucher cards can be purchased at the Turchin Center welcome desk during regular business hours. Up to 20 artists can be accommodated at each session on a first come first served basis. Arrive five minutes early to reserve your spot.
