The Campaign for Drawing has one aim: to get everyone drawing!

Why? Drawing helps us to think, invent and communicate – regardless of age and ability.

The Campaign took its initial inspiration from the visionary Victorian artist and writer, John Ruskin.
 
We're gearing up for The Big Draw 2012. Held throughout October, The Big Draw is the Campaign's flagship programme and aims to bring communities together in fun, creative ways. More than 1,500 venues take part annually, from nursery schools to national museums. Last year 20 countries joined the UK in organising events.
This free training day will offer lots of ideas and inspiration to get even
a complete novice drawing and learning skills to pass onto your group/learners/colleagues and having fun!

It will cover how to set up and register your event with The Big Draw, look at support available online, how to link into the Big Draw at Rufford and how to enter for a Drawing Inspiration Award.
