Open Studio - Life Drawing

Open Studio: Life Drawing Sessions

Our open studio life drawing sessions feature a live model, and advance registration is strongly encouraged. If we do not have enough pre-registrations by the Monday prior to the session, to cover the cost of the model, the session will be canceled.

Please sign up in advance, or let us know you plan to attend, so we can confirm the session and keep it running.

Refine your figure drawing skills in a relaxed, professional studio environment. Open Studio: Life Drawing offers artists the rare opportunity to work from a live nude model for 2 hours of focused, self-guided practice. Whether you’re sharpening your anatomy skills, building a portfolio, or simply enjoying the discipline of observational drawing, these sessions provide the space, time, and inspiration to grow.

Sessions take place on the following Wednesdays:

1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4 and 2/11

Pre-registation is highly encouraged.

A rotating mix of professional male and female models will pose for each session. Artists must be 18 or older; ages 16–17 may attend with written parental permission. Easels and drawing boards are provided—just bring your favorite materials.

House Rules:

• Door opens at 6:30 pm – come early to set up and meet your fellow artists.

• Cell phones must be silenced and are not permitted for use during the session.

• Photography of any kind is strictly prohibited.

• All participants are expected to maintain a respectful and professional environment.

Join a community of dedicated artists and experience the timeless practice of life drawing.
