Join us for Open Studio in August! We will be focusing on the influence nature plays in Maynard Dixon's processes and artwork. We will be taking our studio outside and utilizing the natural environment to practice plein air painting.

Each month in this free-choice, self-guided art-making experience for all ages, you’ll be inspired by different artworks on display, then create your own artistic responses in the MOA studio! Join us any time between 11 AM & 1 PM to participate. All are welcome, and registration is not required.

We typically hold new Open Studio activities on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month, so drop by every month for a new activity featuring different artworks and materials!
