Celebrate creativity with us! Join us for one of our The Big Draw LA events! 

This family-friendly community drawing project will feature the unique people and places in Glendale. Educator and Nickelodeon artist Kristin Donner will show examples of how different towns and their inhabitants are portrayed in fine art and cartoon art and talk about some simple principles of design. 

Kids and adults will collaborate on a large panel collage of our city skyline and will be able to 'plant' trees they draw as well as draw their families and friends doing the things they do around town. 

The finished collage will be displayed in the Library to show how it takes many people working together using their unique talents to make up our city!
