Drawing Room: Illustrating Sound

Drawing Room: Illustrating Sound

Thursday, April 30, 2026
6:00 to 8:00
In-Person
Facilitator: Abeer Ahmed

Sometimes what we hear is not what it seems… In this drawing room we'll be illustrating sounds as we hear them. We will breakdown our personal associations with sounds and then spend some time detaching from those associations to illustrate the sounds as we hear them. Because what might sound fingers rhythmically patting on a precursive instrument might resemble the sound of rain drops falling.

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.
