A livelier life drawing event, Dr. Sketchy’s is where artists of all levels draw fabulous burlesque and variety performers! Enjoy delicious cocktails and compete in zany drawing contests to win free drinks and other awesome prizes! We’ll start off with quick 1- and 2-minute gesture poses and gradually move up to 20-minute sketches. No drawing experience is necessary; just bring your own drawing materials—plus generous cash tips for our model—and join us for some fun figure sketching practice!

After a long hiatus, we’re thrilled to finally return in a new venue: The Green Room, a lovely and intimate event space at The Bluebird in Hampden, just off The Avenue. And we’re extremely excited to have, for the first time in years, Aurora Gorealis, the freakishly fabulous host of the horror film series Shocktail Hour! So if you’re looking for something a little less sappy around Valentine’s Day, come join us for a spooky Valloween sketch night!

Come early (doors open at 6) to get the best seats and a drink—and even a delicious dinner—then stay after we wrap up to share your work with fellow artists over one last drink. As always, join in our crazy drawing contests for a chance to win some free booze and other neat prizes! No drawing experience is necessary—just remember to bring your own drawing materials, and be ready to generously tip our model

Doors at 6:00 pm, drawing from 7-10 pm.
