A workshop to inspire your artists and ensure you go home with lots of drawings and ideas.

Get inspired by our exhibitions and the landscape around us whilst you experiment with new and unexpected techniques of drawing what you see, such as close-up intricate details, simple lines, layering and drawing blind. Go home with lots of drawings and ideas.

This workshop is designed for children to enjoy independently. Parents and carers, feel free to relax in our lovely cafés or explore our galleries while the kids get creative.
