Event Details

Have you herd? For our Christmas Special this year we are drawing one of London’s most iconic duos- Gilbert and Sullivan! This much-loved pair of miniature donkeys make their home at Spitalfields City Farm, but since you’re all on the nice list this year, they’ve agreed to trot over to cosy confines of Camley Street, Kings Cross just for us. 

While we draw the braying boys, farm manager Jenny will teach us all about this stoic, social species. The cafe will be serving up mince pies and mulled wine, and artist Jennie Webber will be dishing out some of her unrivalled creative advice. So, by the end of the session not only will your minds, hearts and tummies be full, but you’ll have some cracking drawings to take home too. We will bring along some blank Christmas cards, so you can sketch your own set of cards this year if you're feeling inspired! And, since it’s Christmas there may even be a chance to feed and groom the donkeys.

All abilities are welcome, and all materials are provided. Children over the age of 5 are welcome to join, provided they are with an adult who’s also taking part in the class. 

Animal welfare is at the heart of everything we do at Wild Life Drawing. We are a small team of animal lovers who are dedicated to conservation, and we strive to make each of our classes a positive experience for the animals we draw. We only ever work with the finest handlers who treat their animals with respect and care, and animals who are healthy and happy being around humans.

£10 of each ticket will be donated to Spitalfields City Farm. This will support all the wonderful projects that the farm run, like their wonderful community gardens, local outreach, and their involvement with the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. 

Please note: Tickets are non-refundable and cannot be moved to another class, but can be transferred to another name- just get in touch to let us know who will be attending. We do sometimes have waiting lists for sessions, so if the class you have tickets for is sold out and you can’t make it, please email info@wildlifedrawing.co.uk with as much notice as possible and we will try our best to re-allocate your tickets. If we are able to do so you will be given a credit for another class.
