Special activities will encourage you to have a go at drawing and experience art in a new way.
In our day-to-day life we don’t always realize how beautiful things can be. We forget to look closely. While drawing you begin to see things you never noticed before.
The RSASA Members’ Autumn Exhibition will include paintings, mixed media, photography, textiles and sculpture. The
diversity of the Members’ work on the RSASA gallery walls in the heritage Institute Building will also enrich your artistic
experience.
