TO MARK the centenary of one of the country’s best-loved authors, a life drawing session with a difference will take place in Woodley this week.
Art Macabre is hosting a Dark Dahl Drawing Salon at Woodley Library.
The event invites participants to sketch scenes and models inspired by classic Roald Dahl tales. As well as the popular children’s books, Mr Dahl wrote Tales of the Unexpected, had a hand in a James Bond film and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
Art Macabre are a London-based group who organise theatrical death drawing events, making this one of the most unusual events hosted by Wokingham Borough Libraries.
There will be curious costumed characters and a musical soundtrack inspired by books, rhymes and films of Mr Dahl.
Places should be booked for the event, which takes place on Friday, April 15 from 7pm.
It costs £8 and participants should bring an easel or something to lean on.
