Second Saturday featuring Tree-Inspired Art-Making Workshop

Join us the second Saturday of each month from 10 am – 2 pm for free admission to the Museum! View our latest exhibitions, grab a take-home art kit for the family, enjoy special activities, and purchase one-of-a-kind Lynn merchandise in our shop.

Join garden designer and horticultural instructor Laura D. Eisener and artist Kelly Slater on March 11th from 11 – 1 for a celebration of trees. This all-ages exploration of trees in winter will begin with Laura’s introduction to identifying trees through their twigs, cones, and other visible features, even in the dormant season. Kelly will then facilitate an experimental drawing workshop, using locally collected twigs and cones as our subjects. Participants will explore ways of looking deeply at tree characteristics and experiment with playful approaches to drawing tree twigs and cones.

Workshop participants will also be able to exhibit their creations at an exhibit beginning in May at the Lynn Museum. (See Upcoming Exhibits for more information)
