Drawing All-Stars 2022
From January until June 2022, high schoolers grades 9-11 gathered for a free pre-professional development program led by Teen Art Salon’s Isabella Bustamante in partnership with The Drawing Center.
Over the course of six months, the students drew inspiration from the exhibitions on view, Ways of Seeing: Three Takes on the Jack Shear Drawing Collection, Fernanda Laguna: The Path of the Heart and Drawing in the Continuous Present. During the in-person sessions, the rising artists strengthened their observation skills, catalyze ideation, and develop individual artistic styles.
