Nature-Based Abstraction Workshop

Following in Luchita Hurtado’s footsteps, this one-day workshop will combine guided sketching and meditation experiences in nature and at Harwood Museum, culminating in a studio-based project, led by Sarah Stolar. The landscapes of Northern New Mexico deeply impacted Hurtado’s visual vocabulary and sense of wonder. You’ll spend the morning on one of Luchita’s favorite hiking trails with a series of exercises designed to tune the senses to the natural world. Following a lunch break, participants will draw inspiration from the exhibition Luchita Hurtado: Earth & Sky Interjected before entering the studio to create a work of art drawn from the day’s experiences.

Limited to 15 participants (Ages 16+). Transportation will be available between the Museum and the mountains on the workshop day. Sketchbooks and basic materials will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring their sketchbooks and any favorite materials. Lunch is on your own.

General Admission: $50, Harwood/Tribal Members – $40.00
