Develop your creativity and hone your drawing skills at our fortnightly life drawing sessions in the inspiring surrounds of the Gallery. 

Presenting a diverse range of talented life models for each session, these classes are untutored and open to everyone at any level of drawing skill. Sessions run for 2 hours from 6.30 - 8.30pm with a mix of short and longer poses and a brief break half-way through to chat and see other’s sketches.

Please bring all your own art materials (paper and pencils / charcoal, pastels, board etc.) and refreshments.

Out of courtesy to the model and other participants, please aim to arrive at session by 6.20pm and allow ample time for parking.

Please note: You must have a booking to attend the session. Those turning up without a booking may not be permitted. If you have a 10-class pass you still need to book in for each session.

For ages 18+ only.
