Workshop Description
Join Fairbanks Arts for an engaging, hands-on drawing workshop led by our September Bear Gallery exhibitor, artist Amy Noon.
This three-hour session begins in the Blue Room of the Centennial Building before moving into the gallery, where participants will gather fresh inspiration from the surrounding artwork. Designed for adults (18+) and beginners eager to build confidence in drawing as a foundation for creative expression, this immersive experience keeps you fully engaged from start to finish. You will start with continuous line warm-up exercises—training your eye to draw what you truly see without lifting your pencil—followed by supportive group reflections. From there, you will embark on focused line-drawing explorations throughout the gallery and building grounds, culminating in a technique session on using color to define dynamic positive and negative space.
Note: Each date offers the same complete workshop experience; participants only need to register for one session.
