A introduction to the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize project by founding director Anita Taylor on Saturday 9 January 2021 at 12 noon.

Supported by the Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust, the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize is selected from original drawings and has been led by its founding Director, Professor Anita Taylor, since 1994. The annual open exhibition has an established reputation as the foremost national exhibition of drawing practice and is known for both its promotion of artists and makers who draw, and its championing of the role and value of drawing more widely.

2020 marks the third year of support for the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize by Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust and the 25th consecutive annual open drawing exhibition since the project was founded in 1994. Join us for the free online Drawing Discussion to hear about the aims, history, and development of the project since 1994.

Professor Anita Taylor is an artist, curator and educator, and founding Director of the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize project [1994-] and Drawing Projects UK [2009-]. She is also Dean of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design at the University of Dundee.
