Trip: NBMAA "Modern Women" Tour and Studio

Join is at the New Britain Museum of American Art for their new tour and studio program inspired by their special exhibition Modern Masters: Women of Abstract Expressionism.

The program pairs a docent-led tour of the galleries with a hands-on art studio. First, spend an hour with an NBMAA Docent learning about the lives of American women artists from the 19th century through the present. This tour will feature works from the permanent collection and the special exhibition Modern Women: Visionary Artists. Your second hour will be spent exploring hands-on art making in the light-filled NBMAA art studios. Try your hand at the “soak stain” technique pioneered by artist Helen Frankenthaler as you create a beautiful work on unprimed canvas. Designed for all levels—from total beginners to experienced artists.
