Doodle Day: DRAWING People Together
Arts for Children and Youth (AFCY) had designated October 1, 2011 as “Toronto Doodle Day”. AFCY handed out postcards on October 1st and 2nd for people to doodle on. The theme for the drawings was “Express Yourself”.
This hands-on art-activity encouraged the public to “creatively play” and express themselves while they engaged in the same kind of collective art-making experience that our program participants enjoy. The public was invited to send in their drawings, to be featured on our website. AFCY will also be showcasing some of the artwork created on our social media channels. Participants are invited to send in a Twitpic (Our Twitter handle is @AFCY2010) with the hashtag #me.
