Big Sunday happily welcomes you to Our Really Big Community Calendar

We try to include all kinds of volunteering and helping opportunities for all kinds of interests, talents, passions, and ages! As you’ll see, these include volunteering opportunities (one-time and long-term) as well as the chance to support a nonprofit by attending fundraising events. Plus, of course, we include all of Big Sunday’s homegrown events, too! Whoever you are, and whatever you do, there is someone out there who could use your help.

If you have questions about our calendar, or would like to add a listing, please contact calendar@bigsunday.org or submit your event/opportunity via the button below.

Big Sunday’s Community Cruise @ San Pedro, CA (details provided with RSVP)
Oct 9 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

In our opinion, Big Sunday’s harbor cruises are awesome.  We host underserved, deserving folks on a special cruise through San Pedro Harbor and often many of our guests have never been on a boat before!  We’d love volunteers to join us as hosts with an easy assignment — be friendly, hand out donuts, enjoy one another and enjoy the ride.  This excursion is part of Big Sunday’s “We’re All in the Same Boat” project in which everyone is encouraged to meet at least one new person.  Each cruise leaves at 10 am and returns at 12 pm and all cruises are always free.   For more info or to sign up, contact beenish@bigsunday.org.Big Sunday Harbor Cruise

Summer Art Program @ Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art
Jul 24 @ 9:30 am
Summer Art Program @ Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art | Los Angeles | California | United States

Students have the option for enrolling for the whole 4 weeks, or 2 weeks sessions, either Session 1 or Session 2.

Session 1: July 10th – July 21th
Students will learn how to depict the illusion of three-dimensional objects through the language of linear and tonal drawing. The subjects of the sphere, cube, cone, cylinder, egg and cylindrical ring are possible subjects that will serve as foundational elements for the later study of casts. This program will introduce the student to ideas of linear construction using complex cross-contour analysis of form. Students will also be introduced to the properties of light and shadow necessary in the depiction of form in the first week. In the second week of the program, students will proceed to linear and tonal investigation of more complex, hybrid geometric forms.

Session 2: July 24th – August 4th
Students will be focusing on the complexity of the human head, students will engage in portrait drawings with an emphasis on precision and capturing the idiosyncratic proportions, features, and likeness of the face. Lectures will focus on the structure of the features as derived from classical Greco/Roman aesthetics as well as the Italian Renaissance, and how to utilize structures in decoding/understanding more naturalized forms. During the end of the program students will be introduced to drawing the portrait from a live model.

Students will be treated to Special Guest Artists and LAAFA Faculty for Lectures, Demos and More…

*During the course of this program, students will receive individual projects ranging from simple objects, cast studies, still life and drawing from the live model. Students may also learn the principals of painting. This will be based on their drawing progress in the program.
