Celebrating 6 months of hosting Guildford Drink & Draw! (Copy)

This month marks six months since I became the permanent host of the Guildford Drink & Draw events- and what an inspiring journey it’s been so far!

In partnership with the wonderful teams at New House Art Space and the Boileroom, I’ve been bringing twice-monthly creative gatherings to the heart of Guildford. These events have become a space not only for drawing and creativity, but for community, mindfulness, and connection- values that are especially close to my heart.

It’s been such a pleasure to see familiar faces return and new ones join each time. I’m constantly inspired by the deep, thoughtful conversations that emerge around the tables, and I feel truly lucky to be part of something that brings people together in such a meaningful way, right here in my hometown.

If you’ve joined me at sessions over the past few months- thank you! And if you haven’t yet, there’s no better time to come along. Whether you're a seasoned sketcher or picking up a pencil for the first time in years, Drink & Draw is a welcoming space for all. And no, you don’t have to consider yourself a ‘good draw-er’!
