During this self-led workshop, you will enjoy exclusive access to examples of zoological and anatomical illustration ranging from depictions of intricate crustaceans to breath-taking birds and big cats; all situated in the beautiful and historic reading rooms of the National Art Library.
Please bring your own drawing materials to this event. Due to the historic nature of our collections, only pencils and laptops may be used in the library.
