21 Portraits for 21 days

To celebrate Down’s Syndrome Awareness Week FriendZ Space, our online sessions for adults with Down’s syndrome, are running a fantastic series of sessions with a guest art teacher who will guide them through making self-portraits in the style of Andy Warhol, Picasso and Georg Seurat. They are calling it '21 Portraits for 21 days', the sessions are taking place each Thursday leading up to World Down's Syndrome Day and are open to all adults with Down's syndrome. 

If you haven't already received the FriendZ Space calendar you can view it and sign up for these events here: https://www.dsscotland.org.uk/our-services/for-adults-with-ds/friendz-space/
