Doodling and Discussion

Part drawing workshop, part support group, the Disability Drawing Club allows people with disabilities, chronic illness, and mental illness to be unapologetic about their bodies and to broaden representation of disabled people in drawing practices.

No drawing experience necessary!

Sessions are held at ADA accessible spaces. Masks required. Zoom simulcasts are available for people who want to attend but do not feel well enough to come in person the day of the event.
