2024 Fall Sketching Dead Things Report

On October 12th, 2024, the Bean Life Science Museum hosted their first ever drawing night, titled “Sketching Dead Things.” The night began with a brief introduction before the patrons were let loose to wander the Museum and sketch whatever specimens they would like. The educators provided helpful feedback and advice to those who asked for it and everyone had a great time. 

Throughout the event, guests had the opportunity to visit the classroom which had specimens on display from the education collection and a slideshow with simple sketching tips and ideas. The event ended with a gallery walk, where guests had the opportunity to show off what they sketched and to see what others drew as well. Many guests were very excited about the event and said they hope the Bean hosts another soon.
