Make Your Marks: PZ Food Festival Sketchbook

September 5 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
A spiral-bound sketchbook with blank white pages sits on a pink surface next to a row of colorful sharpened pencils arranged in a diagonal line.

Make a mini sketchbook with us and get creative at PZ Food Festival! Explore the colours, shapes, patterns and textures around you, from delicious food to colourful stalls and inspiring artwork.

Fill your sketchbook with your favourite marks, doodles, drawings and food-inspired details, then bring it back to base and have fun adding colour, collage and your own creative touches to turn your sketches into mini artworks.
