Bristol Drawing School is a not for profit private arts venue and education facility that aims to encourage and nurture the art of drawing, not only as an art form in its own right, but as an essential part of the creative process. We offer drawing courses and workshops throughout the year as well as curating a regular series of exhibitions and artist talks.

BV Show at Sidcot Galleries
Tutor Ruth Wallace would like you to know that she has had her work selected for the BV Show at Sidcot Galleries which starts next Saturday and runs until 7th June.
Seven of her drawings have been hung. They are large pieces (126 x 95 cms) and most galleries don't have room to show many in a group show, so this is the first time Ruth has had such a large group from this series exhibited together.
The show will be open Thursdays and Fridays 11am to 6pm and Saturdays 10am to 4pm until 7th June and the address is Sidcot Galleries, Sidcot Arts Centre, Oakridge Lane, Sidcot, Winscombe, North Somerset BS25 1PD.
Anyone is welcome to come to the launch event on Saturday afternoon.
