Drawing through the galleries is a seasonal workshop which follows a guided tour of the current exhibitions. This tour focusses on the Jameel Prize: Poetry to Politics and Tsuyoshi Hisakado: Polite Existence as well as the Artist’s Garden: Samur by Zheng Bo and Library Circles: Another Empty House.

As children and families tour the centre, participants gain a deep engagement with artists’ themes, techniques, and processes and learn various experiential drawing techniques to stimulate hand-eye coordination and ways of seeing. Drawing techniques include fragmented drawings, layered drawings, and continuous one-line activities.

The workshop held by Jameel Arts Centre’s Learning Manager Hadeel Al Heeti is free-to-attend.

This workshop is suitable for families of all ages. No prior art experience is required. All materials and equipment are provided.

Early registration is encouraged as spaces are limited.
