Seven Stories was delighted to host the The Big Draw launch for the Northern
region. The day was a great success with just over 600 visitors, making it our
second busiest day ever (only behind our own opening day).

Illustrator Anthony Browne presented an animated talk Making the Background
Speak, exploring how he develops backgrounds in his drawings.
|
|
In our Engine Room visitors added their drawings to the interior walls to help
create an 'Exploding Drawing Room'.

|
In the Artist's Attic Drawing Room visitors contributed tiny drawings for our
washing-line gallery. Some of these were used to create miniature room sets.
|
|
Worlds in a Room Workshops invited everyone to become detectives by looking at
room and set design in the galleries. and creating their own world in a 'box
room space'.
|
|
There was also the chance to explore characters with role play and dressing up
and visitors drew themselves in their new roles.
