Join us for a fun and lively Caricature Drawing Workshop at The Deckle Edge, where you’ll learn how to turn familiar faces into playful, exaggerated portraits full of character and personality. Explore facial proportions, expressions and the features that make each face unique, then learn how to push and exaggerate them while still keeping your subject recognisable. Perfect for beginners and anyone who has always wanted to learn this skill, no previous drawing experience is needed. Expect plenty of laughs, bold eyebrows, big expressions and wonderfully quirky portraits along the way. Come on your own, bring a friend, or make it a fun and creative date and see who can create the funniest caricature!Date: Saturday, 31 October 2026
