Society of Sketch - Come Draw & Model with us!

Society of Sketch is an 18+ community drawing night that blends fast-paced sketching with wildly dressed models and a whole lot of creative freedom. Each session features multiple models, a 60-second warm-up, and rotating 3–5 minute poses, with fun challenges thrown in for both the artists and the models. Sometimes we do longer 10 minute poses or special theme nights!
It’s not a class—it’s a collaborative, no-pressure space to connect with fellow creatives, loosen up your lines, and let loose your imagination. All skill levels welcome.
Costumes are wild, the vibe is weird, and no two sessions are the same. If you feel like coming in costume, go for it!
Want to try modeling? Let us know at the event and we will make some time for your poses!
