The Arts Council of Princeton partners with the Princeton University Art Museum to provide free virtual art-making classes. Weekly classes are taught by ACP artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo over Zoom. Techniques emphasize drawing with pen, paint or pencil on paper. Each week’s lesson features works from the Museum’s collections.
