Life Drawing / Body Love Sketch Club – MONDAY MARCH 24 – 7pm – 10pm
Body Love Sketch Club is a life drawing class with a twist, in which you can choose to pose as well as draw, whilst we explore ways of accepting ourselves more unconditionally, and expressing ourselves more freely. The workshops are an artistic adventure in body positivity and creative empowerment, a joyful and tender tonic to feeling disconnected from each other and ourselves, a celebration of bodies in all their (optionally naked) glory, and a place for creative play without shame or judgment. All bodies, artistic capabilities and confidence levels welcome.
Entry: £15. Advance tickets are HERE
