Join us at York Art Gallery for a family-friendly life drawing class, set in our latest exhibition Turner, Wedgwood and Beyond: Inspired by Flaxman.

Led by York based artist and tutor, Rob Oldfield, you’ll draw from a live model, exploring gesture, movement, shape and storytelling — turning what we see into expressive drawings. Expect quick sketches, big movements, curious observations and plenty of imagination.

This session is all about having a go, looking carefully and enjoying drawing together, no experience is necessary.
