Focus on the Figure at RJD
“Recollections and Realities”will be on view at RJD Gallery in Sag Harbor from Saturday through Jan. 3,

Free Drawing Class
Guild Hall’s Table Talk series will depart from its usual format on Sunday morning when Aurelio Torres, an East Hampton artist, will conduct a free drawing class from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Mr. Torres comes from a family of classically trained artists, and his own training was in Barcelona, where he studied for several years with his uncle Augusto Torres. His paintings typically depict scenes from nature or portraits, and his sculptures interpret the clean lines of wooden ships. Drawing supplies will be provided.
