BUNDANON BIG DRAW: 18 JANUARY
|
 |
|
Arthur Boyd put the Shoalhaven on the international map with his stunning depictions of its river and the surrounding bush. This summer on Sunday 18 January, Bundanon Trust is launching the Bundanon Big Draw, following a world-wide trend to encourage the public to put everything aside and draw for a day.
Come along with all the family and help create the longest drawing in the Shoalhaven as paper is rolled down the River Walk from the Bundanon Homestead. Will we make it all the way? We can, with your participation. We will provide the materials for the big drawing and we will be on hand to support your efforts. A fun activity for all ages and abilities!

Bundanon's current touring exhibition is the first to consider the social consciousness that infused Arthur Boyd's life and art.
