Levy Center- Drawing Birds with the Field Museum

This program will be a special treat for artists and would-be artists. Be inspired by looking closely at real bird specimens.  John Bates, Field Museum Life Sciences Curator, will tell of each bird’s travel and family experience, and Peggy Macnamara, Artist-in-Residence at the Field, will give you simple tips on how to represent each bird correctly.  Art supplies will be provided.  All ages are welcome.  Children under 18 must come with an adult chaperone. The program is free, but registration is required. To register call the Levy Center at 847.448.8250, and provide program code 11359.
