Join Drawing is Free in Paris between 30th June and 4th July 2025 for SUMMER SCHOOL DAYS, a series of creative workshops with Paris as our playground.

---

Published: May 25

Based on a summer program that I created and taught for art educators at Paris College of Art you will find a range of experiences that will both connect you with your creative practice and offer you new ways of thinking and working.

Paris will be our playground: from the parks and gardens, institutional spaces, the streets and cafes and my little studio.

I will share my experience as a teacher and artist, support you with your work and show you parts of the city I love.

This series of ‘Summer School Days’ is designed so that you can take part in just one, several or all of the sessions. The full programme is below, or ︎Download the Information booklet︎︎︎ [PDF 1.1mb]
