ARTIST Laurie Plant will be leading budding artists in The Big Draw event at the Bingham Gallery in Cirencester on Saturday, October 1.
This is part of the Big Draw, a nationwide event which aims to encourage all ages to have a go at drawing.
The activity is suitable for all ages from five up and is a free drop in event from 10am-2pm.
The event links to this year’s Bingham Gallery special exhibition Drawing on Cirencester, which shows historic scenes of Cirencester over 250 years.
It explores how Cirencester has been depicted using the most direct and simplest of artist techniques, drawing.
From the series of bold expressive drawings of the town created in 1814 by the well-known artist Jean Claude Nattes to more recent views by Cirencester- based artist Laurie Plant whose work is included in the exhibition.
Laurie Plant is a well-known Cirencester artist known for his woolly jumper hare in 2014’s Hare Festival and also his commission ‘Cirencester Capital of the Cotswold’s’ now in the Bingham Gallery’s collection.
- The Big Draw event is at Bingham Gallery and Conference Suite, Bingham House, 1 Dyer Street, Cirencester on Saturday, October 1 from 10am-2pm.
