The Big Draw at the National Portrait Gallery
The Big Draw is taking place from 1st to 31st October this year. For those of you who don’t know, it is the national campaign for drawing.
It is inspired by the visionary Victorian artist and writer, John Ruskin. His mission was not to teach people how to draw, but how to see.
To accompany the Big Draw, the National Portrait Gallery is setting up a special event for kids and teens from 1pm to 4pm. Best of all it is FREE! Family visitors and young people will have the opportunity to work with professional artists on an exciting drawing project in the Gallery.
It sounds great fun and a good opportunity to bring Art alive in the perfect setting.
