We are excited to launch a new drawing club for children in KS2 (ages 7-11) who have a passion for drawing and would like to improve their skills. The Quick Draw Club will be run on Saturday mornings by professional artists Caroline Clark and Gabrielle Vickery who are experienced in teaching children and running workshops.
Drawing comes naturally to young children and is fundamental to their learning, growth, and understanding of the world around them.
The children will learn various drawing skills including composition, shading and perspective, all in a fun environment. Caz and Gabrielle are kind and approachable and they look forward to hosting an enjoyable and creative environment for your little one to flourish.
