I've organised this event to tie in with the Chorlton Arts Festival. It's a gentle step-by-step approach to putting pen to paper and building up the courage to go out there and capture Chorlton in sketches. You’ll soon be hooked.
The workshop starts with a short presentation on what urban sketching is all about and a preview of the day’s activities.
You’ll overcome your fear of drawing outside and build up some techniques that will set you on the road to becoming an urban sketcher.
We’ll meet at the Benito Lounge on Wilbraham Road. I'll be there from 9.30ish for a 10am start. After 40 minutes or so it'll be out on the streets for the rest of the day.
Bring your own materials. A pen and small sketchbook is all you need. If you have some watercolours that would be good. Something to sit on – a camping stool or similar – is a must.
Cancellation Policy. If there is a waiting list and I can fill your place with someone else there will be no charge for cancelling. If there is no waiting list then: You can cancel upto four weeks before the event then no charge; two weeks before then a 50% refund; after that no refunds, sorry.
It’s weather dependent. If it looks like a total washout then I’ll cancel the event and refund your ticket price, although not the Eventbrite booking fee, I’m afraid. I’ll let you know a few days before.
The £45 ticket price will have a small Eventbrite fee added.
If you'll struggle with this fee, please email me, I can offer a couple of pay-what-you-can-afford places. len@lengrant.co.uk.
