Fulfilling DAC's mission "to catalyze interaction between visual artists, the local community and the wider public," the Monster Drawing Rally is a unique event that invites members of the public to witness what is usually a private creative process.

Audience members will watch as 20-30 artists at a time create work in-person and on the spot. Using materials supplied by DAC, each group of artists will work for one hour, in shifts starting at 2, 3, 4, and 5PM. A wide range of drawing styles and working methods will be on display.

The event fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among the participating artists as they get an inside look at the creative methods of their fellows. For the seasoned art patron, the Drawing Rally provides a fresh look at favorite artists and a chance to discover new talents. While the entire mystery of art making and inspiration will never be fully understood, this event reveals the work, inspirations and magic that go into art. For the audience as a whole, the Monster Drawing Rally will be both an exciting spectacle and a rare opportunity to bring home original artworks at an affordable price.

All drawings created in the Rally will be hung as finished and may be purchased as soon as they are completed. All work will be for sale at the same low price of $50, in the spirit of accessibility and equality that is integral to DAC.

Kids can get involved from 2-5PM at our children's drawing station. Drawing Rally artists will be on hand to offer guidance and all materials will be provided by DAC.
