Whether you are confident at drawing and painting or you’re a beginner, sketching on location, in public can be nerve-wracking at first. But why not join S2R and Friends of Greenhead Park for this Art In The Park session and have a go! Be inspired by the great outdoors, take a closer look at nature or just take some time out for yourself. Suitable for all ability levels, no art skill needed. Please wear clothing and footwear suitable for walking.
Please bring something to draw on and with (e.g., a notebook and a pencil or your sketch books, pens and pastels).
