QuickDraw of Western north carolina

QuickDraw was a brainstorm by artists

​​QuickDraw launched in 2001 to show off WNC’s rich art and craft community, shine a light on art’s importance for students, and give a financial boost to strapped art programs in elementary through high schools. The live quickdraw event is a window on the creative process, with watchable artists who can work focused and fast to capture the essence and the color pops of outdoor painting, plus slower-media artists who like to show off their techniques.


You can be a part of this. QuickDraw’s must-do lively annual benefit event raises over 85% of the budget for art supplies in Haywood County classrooms. Quick Draw provides scholarships to students pursuing art-related fields of study, from art ed to product design to media. Since its first event, QuickDraw has donated over $214,000 in grants and scholarships to Haywood County art teachers and students.


QuickDraw is all-volunteer local folks in a 501c3 nonprofit. We know of art education's power for our kids and community. We partner with the Haywood County Schools Foundation to administer QuickDraw grants and scholarships.
