En Plein Air with Terry Elkins at the Sag Harbor Whaling & Historical Museum
Event Details
Join us for another summer of plein air painting classes with the Bridgehampton Museum! This year our workshops will be hosted by three different artists throughout the summer, giving all of our students more opportunities to learn. These classes are for artists of all abilities from beginners to professionals and will take place at a series of beautiful locations within the Bridgehampton area. Join us to get hands on with some history! The Sag Harbor Whaling & Historical Museum preserves and interprets the history of Sag Harbor’s 19th-century whaling industry and maritime heritage. Housed in a historic 1845 whaling company building, the museum features artifacts, model ships, scrimshaw, and exhibits detailing the town’s role as a major whaling port. Through educational programs and special events, it highlights the cultural and economic impact of whaling on Long Island and American history. |
At the culmination of this program, The Bridgehampton Museum will be hosting an exhibition of works done by students in this class. Each student will be able to submit one piece they worked on during one of the classes to be part of the exhibition which will be on view in the museum this fall.
