Drawing Week 2025

​Drawing Week is a week packed full of drawing activities for first year students in the School of Arts. Drawing Week 2025 is 20-24 October.
Why do we have Drawing Week?
We believe – in fact we KNOW – that drawing is an essential part of a creative practice and a creative life. Drawing Week is about celebrating that and providing opportunities for you to experience the many exciting ways that drawing can work for you.
 
Drawing Week isn’t about everyone learning how to draw, or everyone learning how to draw in a particular way.
Drawing Week is about you staring to see how you can use drawing, and how drawing can be of use to you.
Drawing is totally awesome!
