About the workshops
Join us for a series of 3 life drawing workshops for young people (aged 16-25), each of them led by an emerging artist. The free workshops will focus on a different aspect of Leighton’s drawing practice, in dialogue with the lead artist’s own work. You can join one, two or all three of the workshops.
Lead artists to be announced soon, watch this space!
