Drawing Session at The Church

A drawing meetup with Jackie Hoving and Norm Paris, artists, art professors, and resident alumni of The Church, will happen on Sunday from 3 to 4:30 p.m. at the Sag Harbor arts venue.

Participants in the communal drawing salon can take a sketchbook, graphite or colored pencils, and/or pens in order to draw onlookers, their surroundings, or anything else that captures the eye. All skill levels will be welcomed; The Church calls it a casual drawing session, not a class.

Tables and chairs will be provided, but participants can also find space within the exhibition for a solo drawing experience. Some graphite pencils and 8-by-11-inch paper will be provided; however, all in attendance have been encouraged to take their own supplies. (Charcoal, paints, and markers are not permitted in these sessions.)

Mr. Paris, a professor at the Rhode Island School of Design, and Ms. Hoving, a professor at Pratt Institute, met as students in Sam Messer’s Yale Norfolk Summer School of Art program.

Tickets are $5, free for members who R.S.V.P.
