A Budding Botticelli?

As part of the forthcoming national 'Big Draw' initiative, where people all over the country will be encouraged to draw, First Garden City Heritage Museum, Norton Way South, Letchworth Garden City, is running its own 'Big Draw' exhibition from October 1 until October 27, adding their contribution to the host of planned nationwide events.

So, if you are a budding Botticelli or a potential Picasso, be 'drawn' to the museum and have some fun. Draw a shop, house or factory for the museum’s 'new' Letchworth Garden City street, have a go at a self-portrait, or learn how to copy a painting in minutes.

Activities are free for the under 16's. Ring the Museum on 482710 or email fgchm@letchworth.com to find out how you and your family can join in locally.

The museum is open Mon-Sat from 10am to 5pm. Admission is £1 for non-residents and 50p for town residents and students.
