In ArtsClub’s Hands-On Art History Series, you’ll learn about iconic artists and create your own work inspired by their styles!

Learn about the portraits Picasso painted of the people that inspired him. Then, with guidance from professional artists, paint a portrait of yourself -- or your partner -- inspired by the portraits of Pablo Picasso!

All art materials are included in the ticket price. Food and beverages are available for purchase on-site. Please note that proof of vaccination is required to attend. Tickets are on sale for a limited time to celebrate the recent opening of ArtsClub in the East Village.
