Join us on Saturday, October 15 from 11am–4pm for The Big Draw--a celebration of drawing inspired by the wildly popular United Kingdom program of the same name. Now in its sixth year in New York, The Big Draw invites audiences of all ages to join in a free day of drawing to express their creativity! Artist Maria Hupfield will lead activities as the Thunderbird Native American Dancers, led by Louis Mofsie, perform a variety of traditional dances. Music by the Heyna Second Son Singers.
