The Big Draw: Bookmarked Moments

This October, join us for The Big Draw at Rainham Hall and celebrate 10 years of us welcoming you in to enjoy our beautiful space.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Working alongside artist Salina Jane, collect a pencil, worksheet or paper, and sketch your way around our site. We will be putting all sketches together to create a collective artwork celebrating the history and present stories of Rainham Hall which will be on display for the rest of the year. What is your bookmarked moment in our story?

No experience is necessary, just bring your stories, your creativity and your love of Rainham. Entry to the garden and activities is free.
