Live Demonstration with Michelle Dunaway, Tina Garrett, Nancy Guzik & Mary Qian
Moderator: President Stuart Fullerton offers historical insight and moderates a lively Q&A.
Location: Palette & Chisel, 3rd Floor Studio, 1012 N. Dearborn Street
Step into the legendary 3rd Floor Studio—where Richard Schmid once stood at his easel. Nancy Guzik shares firsthand memories of painting beside him—his lighting, studio setup, techniques, and unforgettable moments that still echo in the room. A new generation carries the flame. Michelle Dunaway, Tina Garrett, and Mary Qian demonstrate the principles he championed. As Richard said: “I have always felt I was a custodian of this knowledge rather than its owner.”
Witness the torch being passed—live, in the very room where the tradition began.
$75 for Members, $100 for Non-Members.
