Workshop: Drawing From Your Senses

Led by artist Tara Geer, whose work is featured in Desire Lines, this two-hour drawing workshop explores ways of using all our senses—touch, sound, smell, and taste, as well as sight—to experience the world around us and create art. It also looks at the ways we tend to rely on memory, or ideas, to fill in gaps in our sensory perceptions, encouraging participants instead to be present and open to possibility. Geer will share her passion for drawing using pencils and charcoal on paper. No prior drawing experience is necessary—just an open mind and willingness to explore the unknown and make messes. Wear clothes that can be smudged! All ages who can draw on their own are welcome. Presented in partnership with River Gallery School.
