MARION — Join instructor Catherine Carter and the Marion Art Center for an outdoor drawing class and learn to capture the observed landscape in a sketchpad.

Through live demonstrations and individual guidance, the MAC will cover methods for selecting a subject, composing the page, describing organic form, and achieving value and texture.

The class is suitable for both beginners and those with previous drawing experience.

The six-week Plein Air Sketching class will meet on the MAC lawn, patio, or in Bicentennial Park on Wednesdays from May 19 to June 23, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

The program costs $160 for MAC members and $180 for non-members.
