Part of Friends of the Towans Art Club Gwithian Chapel & Gwithian Green Nature Reserve
Sat 26 Oct 12.30-5pm
The Big Dune Draw at Gwithian: by The Friends of The Towans Art Club Join us for the Big ‘Dune’ Draw at Gwithian, as we take part in our third Big Draw Festival and celebrate the third successful year of the Friends of The Towans Art Club. 

Please meet at 12.30 for 1-3pm, to join artist Hilary Jean Gibson at Gwithian Chapel to take part in our 'Big Dune Draw'. We'll explore the 2024 Big Draw Festival theme #drawinginmotion

Meet Hilary Jean Gibson at Gwithian Chapel at 12.30 p.m. to draw on the Local Nature Reserves of Gwithian Green/St Gothian Sands, experiencing the flora, landscape and sea in the motion of the Autumn season. 
Using the ideas of growth and movement we will learn how to draw in fluid and continuous ways to embrace the landscape, engaging with external sensations and inner feelings while we observe, reflect and draw. Come and join us to share a fun, surprisingly revealing and relaxing event. All welcome.
Please bring a sandwich and a drink, something to sit on and appropriate footwear. Suggest you wear layers, hat and fingerless gloves.
We will all go out and draw together - adults, children and families, with some instruction at the start from Hilary who will guide the session and be there if help and inspiration are needed. 
Please bring your own materials with you, including paper/ sketchbook, pencils, coloured pencils, etc. or ask if you would like to borrow these.

Gwithian Chapel will be open from 12.30 until 5pm, with an exhibition of work created previously by adults, children and families at various locations in our beautiful Towans; including En Plein Air drawing at Mexico Towans, sunsets at St Gothian Sands and botanical illustration by families and young people at Gwithian Green Nature Reserve. If you've joined us before then we want to include your artwork in this display, so please bring drawings and sketchbooks to the Chapel at 12.30 or get in touch in advance. Artwork will be returned at the end of the day.


As the event is both a chance to participate in the Big Draw Festival and a celebration of the third year of the FOTT Art Club, tasty tea treats will be served in Gwithian Chapel at 3.30pm, so you can chat and enjoy the end of the day in style!
We will have a raffle, fun quiz and there will be pumpkins 🎃
