In this workshop, offered in English on April 16 and in Chinese on April 23, join us first for a tour of the installation of painting manuals led by its curator, Yuhua Ding, the Kemper Assistant Curator of Collections and Academic Affairs at the Davis Museum, Wellesley College, and former Gregory and Maria Henderson Curatorial Fellow in East Asian Art at the Harvard Art Museums. Then we’ll move to the Materials Lab, where master brush painter Qingxiong Ma will guide you in making your own brush painting, inspired by 17th- and 18th-century manuals.

The hands-on session will then take place in the Materials Lab on the Lower Level.
