Join Director/Curator of Galleries and Collections Xanthe Isbister for a hands-on drawing session inside the gallery inspired by the imaginative and colourful works of Inuit artist Pudlo Pudlat (1916–1992). Participants will explore Pudlat’s dynamic blend of traditional Arctic life and modern change before creating their own artwork that captures a personal sense of place. Under the guidance of the curator herself, you’ll learn to observe, interpret, and express through colour, line, and storytelling — surrounded by the very works that inspire the session. At the end of the workshop, participants will take home their finished illustrated piece. All materials are provided, all skill-levels are welcome; participants are invited to bring a landscape image of a place that resonates with them to use as inspiration for their drawing.

As Director/Curator of Galleries and Collections at the Esplanade Arts &amp; Heritage Centre in Medicine Hat, Alberta, she champions visual expression through thematic national exhibitions like Landed, In Our Nature and The Feminine Lived Experience.
