Whatever your age, whatever your background...
Get out and have fun drawing on October 9th!
The Nashville Scene is sponsoring a city-wide Neighborhood Big Draw!!!!
DRAWING IS NOT JUST FOR ARTISTS
No competition, no judgment, all that matters is that you have fun drawing. What are we drawing? We're drawing our houses and neighborhood buildings to get our eyes and drawing muscles in shape and to learn more about our neighborhoods and each other.
Drawing is for everyone! Not just children, not just artists. That means YOU.
Drawing is interesting, enlightening and it’s your fundamental right to have fun drawing!
