About this Event
Join Intuit on the third Thursday of the month for Art After Work, a free series of facilitated art-making workshops inspired by outsider and self-taught art and artists from the museum’s collections and exhibitions. This month, artist and museum educator Mayra Palafox will lead a discussion and facilitate a workshop inspired by the outsider artist Eugene Andolsek. In the virtual workshop titled Eugene Andolsek: Obsessive Drawings and Vibrant Colors, participants will look to Andolsek’s drawings for inspiration as they experiment with line, color and shapes to create their own kaleidoscopic works of art.

Art After Work is free to join! To show your support to Intuit, please consider the pay-what-you-can option when you complete your reservation. Your contributions help ensure the sustainability of our public programs and support guest lecturers and teaching artists.
