The Jerwood Drawing Prize is the country’s leading award in drawing, and is the largest and longest running annual open exhibition dedicated to drawing in the UK.
Join Jenni Lomax, Director of the Camden Arts Centre, London, and one of the judges of the 2010 Prize for a tour of the accompanying exhibition and a discussion around drawing as a medium in contemporary art practice. The exhibition features works by shortlisted artists, who are both established artists and relative newcomers, selected from over 3,000 entries. Please note there will be a small charge to cover museum admission.
