Festival | The Big Draw

Saturday, July 18, 2009, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm

Free

The Big Draw is the fourth annual daylong celebration of drawing inspired by the wildly popular United Kingdom program of the same name. Bringing together artists and the local community, The Big Draw is a unique opportunity for people of all ages to join in hands-on artist-led projects that are guaranteed to change the way they think about drawing. Audiences will be encouraged to pick up a free sketchbook and express their creativity through inventive, site-specific projects.

Artist Suzanne Bocanegra invites the public to create drawings on outdated and recycled music scores that will immediately be performed in ongoing improvisations by the renowned American string group, Flux Quartet. Using as a point of departure John Ruskin’s belief that drawing can be used to help us see, Bocanegra’s project expands upon this powerful idea, suggesting that drawing can be used to help us hear.
