Artwork should be sized to 8×10 or 4×5 on paper; colored image preferred\, but not critical. Students will be expected to work on their own during the course.

Would you like to learn to paint like an impressionist yourself? Around the turn of the 20th century\, there were dramatic changes in the art world.

This class\, meant for students at all skill levels\, will start from the ground up teaching students how to mix colors like the impressionists and introduce students to various techniques that evolved in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

We are pleased to welcome to our stage violinist Anne Akiko Meyers and classical guitarist Jason Vieaux for a special duo performance. Cutting-edge works by Philip Glass and Arturo Marquez weave together with music by Stravinsky and Piazzolla to create an international tapestry. The program also features a new piece by recent Kennedy Center Composer-in-Residence Mason Bates\, of whom Ms. Meyers\, famed for her impressive body of commissioned works\, is a frequent muse. Together with Mr. Vieaux\, called by NPR “perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation\,” this duo promises to ignite the mind and inspire the heart. \n\nIgor Stravinsky Suite Italienne\nMason Bates New work*\nPhilip Glass Metamorphosis II\nJose Luis Merlin Suite del Recuerdo\nAstor Piazzolla Oblivion\nArturo Marquez Danzon No. 2*\n\n*commissioned works\, Washington premieres URL:https://www.georgetowndc.com/event/anne-akiko-meyers-and-jason-vieaux-concert/ LOCATION:Dumbarton Concerts (3133 Dumbarton St NW)\, DC\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Events GEO:38.9071923;-77.0368707 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
