Community Art Day: Abstract Watercolor Portraits
Saturday, May 8 | 10 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. | Free and open to all
Join us for Community Art Day at NEHMA and create an original abstract watercolor!
Explore the abstract art on view in the Women, Surrealism & Abstraction exhibition, before you learn some watercolor techniques from NEHMA staff and volunteers.
Experiment with different techniques and harness your creativity as you think about
what colors, textures, lines and shapes can represent you!
NEHMA is limiting total attendance to 25 visitors at a time and requiring reservations.
To make a reservation in advance, please see our Visit page. Please wear face coverings—NEHMA can provide some in adult or child sizes if
you need! Also, the activity will be set up in a way to facilitate proper social distancing.
Thank you for your cooperation!
