Miniature Portrait Workshop

Portrait miniatures were popular through the 18th century, and as they were intended as gifts (and even worn as jewelry), wealthy individuals lavishly decorated the settings. Bring a small photo or print (or choose one provided), and The Princeton Academy of Art will guide you through embellishing and framing it. All supplies are included, as well as festive refreshments, including hot cocoa and cookies!

Bonus: registration includes admission to Morven’s holiday display Festival of Trees between 5-6 pm the day of the workshop. It’s a great way to make a special gift and take a break from the holiday hustle and bustle.
