​

Architecture Fringe Festival 2016

Wandering through the streets of both familiar and strange cities, have you ever thought that it would be awesome to stop and sketch? Urban Art Binge gives you the tools, time and the space for exactly that. Come and enjoy two hours of drawing and exploring the streets of Edinburgh, getting up close and personal with the built environment in exciting, fun and empowering ways. 

As part of the 2016 Architecture Fringe Festival in Scotland, Emily Fong of Urban Art Binge will be hosting two sketching workshops in Edinburgh this coming July.

The workshops will be at two different locations in the city of Edinburgh and focus on introducing playful tools to enable access to creative interaction with the built environment through drawing. 

These sessions are suitable for both beginner through to experienced creatives and offer an abundance of inspiration, engagement & delight.

A Binge Bag containing a sketchbook will be provided. Please bring along any drawing pens and pencils you wish to draw with but we recommend that you travel lightly. 

Please wear comfy footwear and bring a rain jacket just in case.

I rediscovered I can draw for my own enjoyment. ET
I was sick of just talking about it and wanted to actually do something! I liked the fact that you were learning skills and could make a short-term, yet solid commitment to making art.

I feel my own style is slowly emerging and I can hardly wait until the next block to continue my journey. JR
