Doodle Day

Doodle Day

Release your inner artist on Doodle Day, a celebration of all those idle sketches you make while on the phone, or in boring meetings. These scrappy drawings are recognised each year on their very own day of celebration, so free your creative spirit and take a sketchpad to your next meeting!

Doodle Day became a worldwide event in 2004 to raise awareness and funds for epilepsy research and support. The tagline ‘Drawing a line through epilepsy’ heads the campaign, and participants take part by submitting their doodle, along with a small donation. The Doodle Day team then judges the doodles and awards prizes accordingly.

So next time you create a random masterpiece while day-dreaming, don’t throw it away. Keep it for the next Doodle Day.
