About the event

Synopsis:

Drawing can connect you to where you are in a specific moment, or to who you are in that moment. It can help you remember or explain. It can help you come to terms with something unpleasant or memorialize something remarkable. Whether you’re traveling across town or across the world, drawing in new places sparks creativity and helps us see beyond our everyday. In this workshop talk we’ll play with travel drawing as a tool for exploring the world and exploring ourselves - both through the work of cartoonist and presenter Kendra Allenby, and through tips, tools and drawing prompts that will get you drawing and your own ideas moving.

Attendees should bring something to draw on (sketchbook, notebook, piece of paper placed on top of a book etc) and something to draw with (any pen or pencil of their choosing.)

Bio:

Kendra Allenby is a professional cartoonist with a background in anthropology and sketch comedy. She publishes cartoons in the New Yorker Magazine as well as Wired, the Wall Street Journal and many others. She teaches art, drawing and creative practice at a variety of institutions including the 92NY in New York. She also works with the Red Cross, World Bank and other organizations using humor and visual art to clarify complex and serious topics. In her more personal work, she loves taking months-long hikes and bike rides and drawing what she finds there.
