Sketchbook Club: William Christenberry, Coleman’s Cafe

William Christenberry, Coleman's Cafe (I), 1982, mixed media, painted wood, and clay soil, Corcoran Collection (Gift of Mr. Robert Lehrman), 2014.136.293

Join us as we create a sketch inspired by William Christenberry’s Coleman’s Cafe.

This is one club where you don’t need a membership to join! National Gallery of Art teaching artists will lead free, 30-minute sketches inspired by works of art from the National Gallery’s collection. Add new drawings to your sketchbook or just doodle along with us as we explore a different prompt each session.

All you need are a pencil and paper. We encourage you to bring colored pencils, crayons, markers, or paints as well, but these are optional. Sketchbook Club is recommended for families with children of all ages.
