Since 2000, arts education charity, The Big Draw has championed the importance of drawing as a tool for thought, invention, and communication. The charity works to promote visual literacy and to demonstrate the vital role of drawing in self-development, harnessing creativity, building skills and expertise for the economy and improving health and well-being.
The Big Draw does this as the creator and driving force behind the annual, month-long Big Draw Festival! Taking place across the UK and in over 20 countries worldwide, join us this year and explore our theme, Drawing with Senses. Whether you create your own tactile workshop series or host an eye-catching exhibition, celebrate the joy of drawing, art and creativity with us!
