Sketching

Sketch Night will resume in Fall 2012. Enjoy the summer!

The Twin Cities sketching community continues to grow and the Bell Museum offers sketch artists of all skill levels and opportunity to get up close with pieces from our collection.

Each Thursday during the academic year offers a specific theme providing a variety of subjects and potential techniques with which to work. Sketching activities begin at 6:30p.m. and last until 8:30p.m. Bring your utensils and let the inspiration flow!
