What to Expect
Experience an engaging evening where you don’t need to be a visual artist to enjoy cultural sketching. Bring your enthusiasm and curiosity as you listen to a member of the local arts community share their story, creative interests, and favourite music. This interactive session encourages you to sketch the presenter and their favourite objects inspired by their narrative.
This month’s session highlights the newest exhibition, Primary Succession, offering a unique opportunity to connect with local art and artists. Materials are provided, and refreshments will be served to keep the atmosphere relaxed and welcoming.
