LGBTQ+ Life Drawing Class

Queer Drag Life Drawing Classes featuring LGBTQ+ models facilitated by Sophie Kathleen (they/them). This event is for people over 18.

Basic materials will be provided (such as paper, clipboards, pencils, pastels etc.) but bringing your own is encouraged.

• We will begin with an intro to the space and the model
• We will explain the prompts/techniques to try, give you some guidance and we’ll get into the creating!
• We will have a short break mid way and also time for sharing and socialising at the end

  The class is open to all abilities (even if you think you can’t draw – you CAN!) and our aim is to create a brave and vulnerable space for us to connect and enjoy the creative process together.

  For more info or any questions please email Soph at [email protected].
