‘Contours’ is an exhibition of artwork from Studio Eden’s life drawing sessions, celebrating creative expression, connection, and the joy of drawing as an inclusive art form open to all.
Proceeds from exhibition artwork sales will help raise funds for MAP and Arts Education Exchange, two organisations we’re proud to support.
MAP: Delivering emergency care, maternal health, mental health support, and long-term healthcare in Palestine and for Palestinian refugees. map.org.uk
Arts Education Exchange: A Margate-based community arts organisation that works alongside young people, who are systematically marginalised, to reconnect with their creative potential.

Workshops
As part of our exhibition week, we’re running a series of life drawing workshops for all ages and abilities — perfect if you’d like to try life drawing for the first time! From relaxed drop-in tasters, to family-friendly sessions, and more focused evening classes, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
All materials provided.
Drop-in Taster Sessions
Casual and welcoming sessions where you can pop in, pick up a pencil, and enjoy a relaxed draw. Our model will be part-clothed, so children accompanied by adults are very welcome.
Family Friendly Sessions
Just like our weekday drop-ins, with extra materials and guidance designed especially for children to enjoy alongside adults.
Tutored / Evening Sessions
A more traditional life drawing set-up, some led by an experienced tutor. These run in a closed-gallery setting for focused drawing time, but they’re still open to all abilities — complete beginners included.
