Urban Retreat - Wasteland Drawing Walk

Saturday, 25th September 2010.

Outdoor drawing workshop 2pm to 4pm with Laura Oldfield Ford.

The workshop will be a walk around the town examining the impact of the Barrow Blitz, the steel and shipping industries and urban regeneration schemes. Through a process of walking and drawing the hidden narratives of the area will be uncovered. Participants will use pens, pencils and chalk to form subjective maps of the town. Bring drawing materials and paper.

Meet at 2pm at Art Gene, Nan Tait Centre, Abbey Road (corner of Bath Street and Abbey Road), Barrow-in-Furness, LA14 5TY.
