Blackpool’s Grundy Art Gallery and new Abingdon Street Studios are teaming up for a series of drawing workshops for artists at any stage of their career. The fortnightly series of workshops will give the opportunity to explore a range of drawing styles using a variety of mediums and for participants to develop their skills.
Eight workshops will take place from June right through until September with the Grundy hosting on the first Monday of the month and Abingdon on the third Monday. There are ten spaces available and artists are invited to apply for a place if they can attend all of the sessions.
All materials are provided free of charge but donations are welcomed to help cover the costs.
