Wild Escape Drop-in and Draw! Connecting with Nature through Art

22 August 2023

10.30am to 2.30pm


An opportunity to spend time drawing items from our natural history collection, including taxidermy animals and birds, butterfly and insect specimens, skulls and fossils. There will be some different creatures to draw from those at our last session. A range of art materials will be provided such as pastels, charcoal, watercolour paints and sketching pencils as well as different papers. You are also welcome to bring your own materials. This is not a taught or guided session, just an opportunity to enjoy creating your own artwork! This event forms part of the Wild Escape- you can submit your artwork to be part of the Wild World collective art project. More details here: https://takepart.thewildescape.org.uk/add All ages welcome, tickets £3 adult, £2 child. Please consider coming to us by bus to reduce your carbon footprint. Bus fares are £2 per person per single journey thanks to a Government scheme to promote greener travel. Our activities are timed to fit in with the no 38 bus timetable between Alton and Petersfield. Please see www.stagecoachbus.com full timetable. The Wild Escape is made possible by lead support from Arts Council England’s National Lottery Project Grants, with additional support from Art Fund and a group of generous individuals and trusts.
