Big Summer Sketch invites us to be creative and get sketching
East Lothian has a thriving arts scene with many artists and craft makers choosing to live and work in the county. As part of its Summer Arts Programme, our Arts Service are inviting all budding artists to showcase their artistic skills too! The theme for 2026 is "Design Your Dream Theatre".
Not limited to sketches, other art forms, such as paintings, collages and models are very welcome too. All entries will be featured on our Arts Service social media pages. Ten winning entries will be selected to receive an art goody bag.
Get creative at home or visit your local library where resources will be available. Entries can be given to library staff (please submit photos of models/collages where required) or send a copy of your creation to: communityarts@eastlothian.gov.uk
Please include your name, age and phone number.
The Big Summer Sketch is open to ALL ages running throughout the summer 24 June to 22 August.
Our Arts Service supports and promotes a wide range of activities and events, provides information about sources of arts funding and offers advice about other available resources for arts funding applications.
