Join us for The Big Draw and be part of the world’s biggest celebration of drawing!
The Big Draw Festival is held worldwide every year to celebrate the universal language of drawing. Join in a range of fun, creative drawing activities for all ages – absolutely no experience necessary! Be inspired by drawing games and challenges, try something new or share your skills with others – it’s all part of the creative atmosphere.
The theme for the 25th anniversary of The Big Draw Festival is ‘Drawn Together’, celebrating how creativity unites us, how The Big Draw has brought people together over the past 25 years and how collaboration and connection are at the heart of making and creating.
Uncover the joy of drawing together with a variety of hands-on activities:
- Think outside the box to create your very own Drawing Machine!
- Create your own Layered Reflection and look through someone else’s eyes!
- Create a collaborative drawing with others with our Exquisite Corpse activity.
- Then, Take a Line for a Walk across your page!
- Join in on the fun with our Mirror Movement activity sessions
