Freefall: Speed Sketching an Exhibition Zine

Freefall: Speed Sketching an Exhibition Zine is at Exeter Phoenix on Thursday 26 November, from 6pm to 8pm in the Gallery and Workshop. It's a session for young people aged 13 to 16, run by Freefall, the Phoenix's youth arts group.

The evening is built around the exhibition currently in the gallery. You'll spend time taking in the artworks and then respond to them through speedy drawing, word association and zine making. The results are then shared with the gallery visitors, so what you make ends up as part of the space for a bit. It's a good way to get a first look at the show and then spend the rest of the night working through it on paper.

Freefall is the Phoenix's youth arts group for 13 to 16-year-olds, run as a space to socialise, share ideas and opinions and develop creative projects together. The group is trialling a new offer of art workshops, with around five sessions each half term covering drawing, painting, 3D installation and customised accessories, alongside reviewing exhibitions and films. This zine session is one of those, so if you're interested in the other things they're doing this term, it's a good place to start.

It's a pay-what-you-can session: £10, £5 or £0, subject to a £1.50 ticketing system charge. Attendees get 10% off food and hot drinks at the Cafe Bar, so you can grab something to eat before or after. It runs from 6pm to 8pm in the Gallery and Workshop at Exeter Phoenix.
