Robert Caputo, an Iowa City-based painter and sculptor, will lead the Drawing Salons.

In this class, participants will draw artworks in the museum's collection. Each session will focus on a different piece. The sessions will begin with an introduction to and discussion of the selected work. Participants will be encouraged to pursue their own visions and to take inspiration from the piece.

Pencils and sketchbooks/paper are the only art-making materials allowed in the galleries. The museum has golf pencils with erasers and clipboards for participants to use. Stools and benches are available in the galleries.

The drawing salon is limited to 15 participants. Please reserve your spot through the DoubleKnot links in the calendar events below.
