Are you working on your art folio at school or perhaps you enjoy drawing in your free time? Sharpen up your observational drawing skills with artist Suyeon Park in these drawing sessions just for teens.

Set in the galleries of the 19th Century Australian Art Collection, take part in drawing challenges related to art works while practising mark-making skills and techniques.

The two sessions are split by age group:
11am–12:30pm: Years 7–9
2–3:30pm: Years 10–12

No prior art experience is required, and all materials will be provided.

Parents/Guardians please note that this is a staffed event. Teens are free to drop in and out throughout the session.

Spaces are limited, so booking is essential.
