Saturday January 26, 11am – 4pm, for young people aged 11 – 16

Young people aged 11 -16 are invited to join graphic novelist Daniel Locke at ONCA’s Barge at Brighton Marina for a fun day of drawing and thinking about the natural world. Daniel will introduce you to the history of the natural world through a process of story-telling and hands on experimental drawing and collage. By the end of the session young people will have produced their own wild adventure zine and learned about wild nature!

Please bring a packed lunch (no nuts, minimal plastic please).

Funded by Postcode Lottery Trust.
