Open throughout Season of Drawing for self-led activity

Our drawing studio at York Art Gallery is a welcoming space for people to create, learn, and share their artwork. It is a space for people of all ages and skill levels to be inspired by our Season of Drawing exhibitions and have a go at drawing! You can try sketching your surroundings, drawing from reference photos or still-life objects, or experimenting with different mediums such as pencils, markers, or paints.

You can expect a range of drawing materials, equipment and prompts to help boost your creativity. Twice a month we will be joined by experienced drawing artists who will offer guidance, support and super fun ways to get involved. For more info on these activities look at the YAG events page.

Learn the art of Lino printing and create your own unique festive greeting cards and prints in a three-hour workshop guided by artist Megan Dobbyn.

Lino cut is a traditional relief printing technique where you carve your own design into Lino and print using water-based printing inks. In this workshop, you will be provided with all the necessary materials and Megan will assist you throughout the process and help you to be inspired by festive and winter-themed prints and designs.

By the end of the workshop, you will have produced one linocut plate and had the opportunity to print your own greeting cards and prints.
