Tiny forests: A whimsical drawing youth workshop

Spend an afternoon turning leaves, birds and tiny forest creatures into your own patterned little worlds. 

Illustrator Binny Talib will guide you through building richly layered sketchbook pages using the library’s nature books as inspiration, no pressure to draw “correctly,” just play with texture, repetition and imagination.

For ages 14-25. No experience needed and all materials are provided (bring your own sketchbook or pen if you have a favourite).
