Quick Draw Competition – 10am
The Festival Finale features a lively two-hour Quick Draw, where artists paint within a set time and location before displaying their finished works for judging and sale.
It’s an energetic celebration of creativity and spontaneity — a favourite for both artists and spectators.
Parking is available right near the foreshore, with several public car parks along Eastlake Parade and Printers Way—all just a short walk to the Fitters Workshop. Most are paid parking zones, even on Sundays, so check signs and use the EasyPark app or nearby ticket machines. Arrive early to secure a spot, as the area can be busy on market days at the Old Bus Depot Markets next door
QUICK DRAW
Entry is included in full festival tickets. Participation is optional. If you plan to participate, you will still need to check in on Sunday Morning to get sales tags for your painting and to have your panels/canvases stamped with the Quick Draw stamp.
Surfaces can have a pre-prepared ground/gesso colour before start. Equipment set-up, thumbnail sketches and paint mixing is allowed prior to start at 10am.
We recommend a frame for this artwork if possible. The Quick Draw artwork is for sale and it will present better for judging and sale and be easier for a Collector to handle if it is in a frame/matt board.
Stay in the boundary on the QUICK DRAW MAP and allow enough time to pack up and be back at Fitters Workshop for judging at 12.15pm sharp!
Any 2D medium is able to be used during this competition including drawing, urban sketching, even collage! What ever you can competently do in 2 hrs!
