The Drawing Lab: Tapping Into Your Imagination
2025-09-27 09:00 - 12:00 UTC | Art on Target, 2 Target Kloof, Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, 6001, South Africa
Our very first Drawing Lab was a true celebration of community and creativity. 63 people came together, from ages 8 to 81, filling the space with warmth, energy, and connection. The four drawing stations created a shared rhythm of discovery, and the joy was tangible. Participants described the experience as engaging, emotional, and deeply fulfilling.
Now we’re excited to gather again for the second Drawing Lab!
Join us on Saturday, 27 September from 09h00 to 12h00 for a morning of creativity and imagination. This month’s theme, Tapping into Your Imagination, invites you to stretch your ideas, explore new perspectives, and discover fresh creative pathways.
Guided by Cedric Vanderlinden and Taryn Jade Benade, this session will feature all-new drawing stations designed to spark inspiration and playful exploration.
