CHARGE FOR TAKING PART
Artist Heidi Wigmore
is leading our drop-in art session for the national Big Draw
event with the theme of 'Notions of Home'. It's an
experimental, collaborative drawing which extends out of the
gallery and around the library, where the pencil never leaves
the page, always handed on to the next person. Draw your idea
of home and family, places that are important to you, add
your written thoughts.
A limited
number of concessionary places are available to Southend Borough
Council Advantage card D holders on each workshop. For further
details or to book a place please call 01702 534108 or email
focalpointgallery@southend.gov.uk.
