Live Model-Open Studio Session (9 Nov 2026)

Mon, 09 Nov 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Open Studio Sessions do not have a teacher and are meant to be an informal, community session where artists are free to talk about their work, share ideas, and discuss a variety of methods and media. These sessions are great practice for any artist interested in working from a live model* without the formality of a class. All skill levels are welcome.

Participants are encouraged to work in a medium of their choice, but must bring their own supplies. Our monitor will set up, lead the group, time poses, and control lighting. A brief peer critique will end each session.

We encourage participants to pre-register online, but drop-ins are welcome. All sessions are "pay what you can". Any donations are kindly accepted.

Sessions currently scheduled:

Monday, November 9, 6:00 PM-9:00 PM

Monday, November 23, 6:00 PM-9:00 PM
