The Big Draw Week
An international festival to celebrate drawing, The Big Draw encourages all to get stuck in and explore their artistic side. Throughout October 2022, the festival had a grand selection of official events that promoted and offered opportunity for all to experience the gift of drawing.
In support of the festivals spirit, Humber Street Gallery encouraged you to get involved in activities inspired by The Big Draw. From the 22 – 30 October, you helped us to bring the building alive by doodling on the walls in our café space, building a collage that showcased the collective creativity of Hull.
