Art and architecture at the Chatillon-DeMenil House

September 19, 1:00 - 3:00 p.m., Sketch workshop with Emily Hemeyer. Come draw architecture with us! You don’t have to be an artist to create an individualistic work of art. We’ll focus on looking at details as well as the whole, and creatively expressing your observations on paper. All ages welcome! Materials will be provided (or feel free to bring your own favorites).



September 27, 2:00 p.m., Greek Revival Architecture and the DeMenil House, illustrated talk by Esley Hamilton. Greek Revival became a national style that captured the political idealism of a young nation. Find out how the Chatillon-DeMenil House does (and doesn’t) reflect the dominant architectural classicism of the mid-19th century.


Both events take place at the Chatillon-DeMenil House, 3352 DeMenil Place (at the far eastern end of Cherokee Street)
