Event Description

Want to see art in a whole new light? Grab a sketchbook and join us for a fun session at MAP in which we explore ways to engage with exhibits through drawing. Learn how to go beyond simply viewing exhibits to perceiving each work of art, by uncovering it layer by layer through the drawings that you create in your sketchbook.

Come on over to MAP and transform your museum visit into a creative adventure.

What to bring along: – A sketchbook that you can easily hold when walking around the museum, ideally A5 or A4, with a hardbound cover. – A pencil, ideally 2b or 4b. A black Ballpoint pen or even a felt pen, if you’re feeling adventurous.

The session will be facilitated by George Supreeth, in collaboration with Penciljam.

George Supreeth is a practising artist and a co-founder of the Nabachika Foundation, a non-profit that works in the area of Citizen Arts. He is a graduate of the College of Fine Art, Bangalore, and has served as a member of its Board of Studies. He runs Ideasutra.com through which he trains organisations on using visual ways of thinking to solve complex business problems.

Penciljam started in 2009 as a small group of artists who gathered together to sketch from life. Over these past 15 years, Penciljam has conducted over 1000 on-location drawing events, and the Penciljam community have created tens of thousands of Artworks of their localities and cultural heritage. Penciljam’s primary aim is to encourage Citizen Arts. We believe that the Visual Arts must be accessible to everyone. Our Community features people from all walks of life, and of all ages – bound by a mutual love for drawing. Penciljam is a project of The Nabachika Foundation.
