Long before we wrote words, we drew pictures to share our lives. ✏️

Join us to explore drawing as humanity’s oldest, most universal language at Cave Drawings of Tomorrow with Manoj Kumar. We’ll look at how symbols shape our conversations today, and ask ourselves: how has this ancient language evolved for the future?

Manoj believes that drawing is a very important form of communication that we don’t pay much attention to. Cave drawings have played a major part in helping us understand our ancestors and history. In this Drawing Room, we will be drawing figures, objects, and environments based on symbolism, and actively using our drawings to tell a story or send a message.

This workshop is free for all. We encourage minimal waste, so please bring your paper, sketchbooks, or other drawing instruments along with your creativity with yourself. We will have A4 sheets, basic pointer pens, pencils, and erasers available from our end if needed.

Nani Ghar Drawing Room is a weekly drawing series where we create and share art together. This series is inclusive for all people wanting to make art in a judgement free zone. No prior skills required, just your imaginations!

The Drawing Room is also a community-led initiative, so feel free to propose what you’d like to do next. This is also an opportunity for anyone who wants to lead a workshop! If you have an idea, and would like to lead a workshop, please reach out, the team will be there to support you in planning and facilitation.
