For the last 100 years or so kids have been exploring and creating worlds of colour with Crayons. For a lot of us, our life long love affairs with colour began with these wax sticks and a blank sheet of paper. According to a Yale University study, the scent of Crayola crayons is among the 20 most recognizable to American adults. Coffee and peanut butter are 1 and 2.

Crayola crayons currently come in 120 colours. Nearly 3 billion crayons are made each year, an average of 12 million daily. That’s enough to circle the globe 6 times with colour!

With 120, the colour descriptions are becoming obscure/inventive/odd? Who cares I love them.

-  Fuzzy Wuzzy Brown
-  Unmellow Yellow
-  Razzmatazz

24 Hour Draw!

Come and watch as a selection of local artists make art for 24 Hours 
straight! Finishing on the 3rd Old Quarter Night on Saturday the 10th of 
October, witness their descent into a pencilly madness for yourselves (and 
maybe even purchase an artwork or two). Half of all sales will go to a 
good cause, the other half will go to charity.

Have a look here for a live stream on the day and some of the events drawings
