Melbourne Museum Big Draw 2005

Produced as a part of Drawing Australia program, the Museum won an Innovation Award from the Vice Chancellor at Macquarie University for this program. 

In this workshop designed by Ulla and assisted by Chalk Circle artists and numerous museum staff, many school groups and the public contributed to this major public artwork.  Children sketched items from the museum collection, and had a talk about pavement art before working on the pavement in public.  This was a major event- many hundreds of pictures were drawn over the week-long program. 

Giant Boomerang -  with animal designs at Moomba Chalk the Walk Melbourne.

Designed by Ulla for Chalk the Walk's workshop program at Art Play during Moomba festival, many school groups and the public came to draw.  It's very rare to get such a great big space to use, without fear of inundation from crowds (we were on the car park roof at Federation Square) .  This has Ulla's largest community workshop design, over about 300sq m.
