Artists of all skill levels are invited to join our Life Drawing on Monday evenings. Sessions are uninstructed, with professional models – male and female. Artists will be drawing the human body and as this is a figure study, models are usually nude. On occasion, costumes and draperies are introduced.

Sessions begin at 6:30pm sharp. Doors are then locked and latecomers will not be permitted in session out of respect for the privacy of the model.
