Did you know that the ruins of Washington Hall at Historic Yellow Springs were the only purpose-built hospital commissioned by the Continental Congress and once served as headquarters of the Revolutionary War’s medical department?

Join us for a brief look at the powerful history of the Historic Yellow Springs hospital ruins before sketching the existing foundation and surrounding medicinal garden. Students will then incorporate a “ghost image,” or translucent overlay, of the original structure, exploring perspective and architectural drawing techniques while visually reconstructing history.

Sign up for this amazing workshop on May 16th @ 10 AM
