Description
Calling all artists: Evergreen Museum & Library is now offering sketching sessions throughout the museum. Each session is for 90 minutes and focuses on a single space in the museum. This session features the Main Library at Evergreen, which holds some 8,000 rare books and manuscripts on its shelves. A docent will be on hand to answer any questions about the room, the collection, and the history of the house and its inhabitants.
In order to protect our collection, we ask that only pencils or colored pencils be used when sketching inside the house. Any type of water pens are not allowed. Supplies are not provided with purchase of ticket.
