Learn and practice your observational skills outdoors this summer while exploring works of public art including Steel Bodies by Maren Hassinger. This temporary art installation is presented by the Assocation for Public Art (aPA, formerly Fairmount Park Art Association) at the Ellen Phillips Samuel Memorial (1933-1960).

Led by artist Nancy Agati whose own practice includes painting, drawing, and site-specific installation, students will learn about the role of drawing and observation in planning and executing large scale installations and the ways artists connect to a landscape.
