"Be inSPIREd"

Thurs 26 Oct, 10am - 3pm Big Draw Event at St Albans Cathedral

Love to draw? Never draw? Can't draw? Come and surprise yourself. Build a church spire, copy our tower, design your own.
Let the building inspire you: picture events from its 1700-year history.
Let other people inspire you: illuminate an initial as the medieval monks did. Watch a modern calligrapher at work.

All ages and abilities welcome. (Children must be accompanied) No Charge. Materials provided.

What is The Big Draw?

The Big Draw is the UK's biggest annual free art event. Led by the Campaign for Drawing, it invites everyone to discover the purposes, pleasures and power of drawing. The Campaign's message is that no previous experience is required, because you don't know if you can do it until you try.

This is the fourth Big Draw event organised by the Cathedral. Each year different ideas and materials are provided, all to encourage people to look more closely at different things in the building and be inspired by them.

In 2005 about 200 people of all ages took part.
