Join us in person for a relaxed, friendly portrait drawing session where everybody takes it in turn to pose. This weekly session is free!
About this Event

The idea is simple - everybody meets at the pub, and once settled, takes it in turns to pose for a few minutes while everybody else draws!

By the end of the evening you will all have been drawn and will all have a collection of drawings of other people. It’s a sociable, light-hearted, untutored evening of drawing; a chance to practice drawing a wide range of faces and to meet some lovely new people at the same time! This cosy session is free to attend and it a great way to meet some local artists, hang out, and of course, draw. You do not have to book for this session - it is totally fine to just turn up! We start at about 6:30pm, usually have a little break part way through, then finish at 8:30pm. It is totally fine to arrive late or leave early as you like. It is also fine to arrive early and say hi!

What you need to bring

Bring your own materials - some basic kit is provided as a back up if you don’t have anything.
