Walk and Draw: creative mapping walkshop

Join artist Wan Yu Fish for a relaxed walk-and-draw around King's Heath pedestrian-only zone, followed by a creative mapping exercise at Nook Gallery.

The walk includes guided activities such as sketching, collecting found objects, and active noticing with sensory observations. Back at the gallery we will make a collaborative collaged mural of everyone's sketches to make a collective map incorporating sensory and emotional layers.

The walkshop starts and finishes at Nook Gallery. See map and venue info below.

PAY WHAT YOU FEEL. If you are in a position to please donate what you can, however no one will be denied a place due to lack of funds. The money will go to the artist and some to the gallery.
