Drawing From Film: Ganja & Hess
at San Francisco Main Public Library
(11 AM - 1 PM)
We'll be pausing Bill Gunn's brilliant vampire film, Ganja & Hess, to draw striking frames. Drawing From Film is a fun way to expand your visual imagination and vocabulary.
Basic drawing materials (pencils, paper, erasers) will be provided. You may bring your own materials, but please no fume-creating paint or paint pens. Watercolor, ink and gouache are fine.
This is a self-led event; there will be no instruction or feedback. However, there will be an opportunity at the end of the session to look at others' drawings and show your own. All levels of drawing experience are welcome.
R, 109 mins., 1973. Closed Captions (CC) in English. Due to pauses for drawing, the full film will not be shown.
This event will take place in the Latino/Hispanic Room on the Lower Level of the Main Library.
Please join us for our two other summer sessions of Drawing From Film on June 7th (Playtime) and August 9th (Blue Velvet).
