**24 Hour Drawing Project**

This Friday, the Warehouse Theater and Gallery in Washington, D.C., will host the fifth occurrence of the 24-Hour Drawing Project, an international collaboration between Hannah Bertram and Kendall Nordin.

Conceived and first performed by Bertram and Nordin in Melbourne, Australia, in 2005, the project involves a group of artists who work for 24 hours in a row. During the project's duration, the working space is open to the public.

There is no exhibition after the conclusion of the event.

The artists involved are not obliged to "draw" in the traditional sense. They may instead work on any act of art involving what the project's founders call "intensive attention or effort." The atmosphere will be what you, the visitors, make of it.

Please join us for this endurance art experience.

The 24-Hour Drawing Project
Friday, Oct. 10, 10 a.m. through Saturday, Oct. 11, 10 a.m.
Free and open to the public
