ART: The Big Draw, Bethnal Green, London

THE BIG DRAW: Bethnal Green, London, 2007 - www.thebigdraw.org.uk

Just up the road for me and throughout the whole of October every year.

Hundreds of little people running around the gardens with polyblock pieces and rollers in small hands. The five images below are based around an idea by Gavin Turk. 

A little volunteer helps out.

Kids get measured.
Kids then colour in, using charcoal.

At the side of the stage hung ceremonial military uniforms. Everyone got to try on the bearskins. The standard bearskin of the British Foot Guards is 18" tall, weighs 1.5 pounds and is made from the fur of the Canadian Brown Bear - and is dyed black.

This is a great idea for a SoW to encourage teamwork. Great for cross curricular with History.
