Drawing from the Vaults

Drawing from the Vaults is a unique course that offers students the rare opportunity to draw from a selection of artworks not typically on public display. Participants will have access to a diverse range of historical and contemporary pieces, including sketches, studies, and preparatory works from the museum’s collection. The course emphasizes observational drawing techniques and encourages students to engage with the nuances of each artwork, exploring elements such as line, texture, and composition. Through guided exercises and individual projects, students will develop their drawing skills while gaining insight into the creative processes of various artists. This course is ideal for those interested in deepening their artistic practice through the study of lesser-seen masterpieces.

Students are asked to bring their receipt (printed or digital) and gather in the Community Gallery located in the Weston Family Learning Centre for the start of the first class. Please check any oversized bags, portfolios and outerwear before the start of class.
