Drawing as Therapy (London)

It’s probably been a very long time since most of us had a go at drawing, and yet drawing is not only great fun, it holds out vital clues as to who we are and how our minds work.

The School of Life invites you to a drawing evening led by one of our therapists, where the skill being developed has nothing at all to do with drawing ‘well’ and everything to do with psychology. The subject is not a model or a landscape, but the contents of our own minds.

By responding to some highly original and psychologically revealing prompts, you’ll be invited to sketch, scribble, and scrawl and in the process, to capture unfamiliar elements of your innermost selves.

By sharing what you have drawn with other participants, new and deeper connections can form. The evening offers a rare chance to unlock your latent powers of expression and to bring important memories and emotions closer to the surface.

Please note: this is an exclusive access event for The School of Life Members. The ticket costs £50, excluding ticket fees and VAT. This event has 25 spaces available.
