Learn Life Drawing for Beginners Workshop Saturday 29th June- 10:45-14:30 - Friends Meeting House, Manchester Welcome to our upcoming life drawing workshop for beginners. This is an opportunity for beginner artists to come together and learn new techniques and skills in capturing the human form from a live model. Because we believe that life drawing is an essential skill for all artists, whether you're interested in figurative work, portraiture, or any other type of art that involves the human body. During this workshop you will have the chance to practice drawing the human body in a variety of poses and perspective using different techniques. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the process, providing helpful tips on anatomy, proportion and composition and individual feedback to help you overcome any challenges you may face, so you can learn to draw the human figure more confidently and competently. We will be working with a professional life model who will hold a series of poses throughout the workshop. These poses will range from short gesture poses to longer, more sustained poses, giving you plenty of opportunities to practice capturing the human form in different positions and angles. All you need to bring is your creativity and enthusiasm to improve your drawing skills, and we will provide all the drawing materials required for this course. Please note that this is a nude drawing workshop, and attendees are to be 18 years or older. We ask that attendees under 18 years of age be accompanied by a responsible adult. This is to ensure that all participants feel comfortable and safe during the workshop. In addition, refreshments including tea, coffee and food can be purchased at the bar, however you are also welcome to bring your own lunch if you wish. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing you at the workshop and can't wait to see the amazing drawings you'll create.

Professor Meredith A. Crowley, Professor of Economics at Cambridge University, will give the 2025 IFS Annual Lecture on "Trade Wars and the Future of Globalisation". The world enjoyed a dramatic fall in policy barriers to international trade and rising international integration of national markets throughout the 1990s and 2000s. However, since 2010, trade integration has stalled, with the global trade to GDP ratio hovering around 30 percent. Over the last fifteen years, the world has witnessed Britain’s exit from the EU, the 2018 US-China Trade War, major trade sanctions against Russia, and, most recently, the threat of broader American trade restrictions. This lecture will examine recent evidence on exporting firms in multiple countries and suggest new approaches to evaluating the price and welfare impacts of market fragmentation due to Brexit and the US-China Trade War. Meredith A. Crowley is a Professor of Economics at the University of Cambridge, a Fellow of St. John’s College Cambridge, President of the International Economics and Finance Society, and a Research Fellow at the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR – London). Her research, focused on international trade, trade policy, and exchange rates has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals including the American Economic Review and the Journal of International Economics. She has appeared or been cited in over 100 print and broadcast media outlets including the BBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Economist, The Financial Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times and National Public Radio (US). Prior to arriving at Cambridge in 2013, Crowley worked in the Research Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. She has taught at Georgetown University, the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, and Nanjing University. She has presented her research at central banks and international institutions around the world, including the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization. Crowley received her MPP from Harvard University and her PhD in Economics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
