A community group for independent figure drawing from a live model, held on the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month. Please be sure to register early! We will use the registration list to determine whether the group can run and if we may hire a model for the day.

This is a figure drawing group, not an instructional class. Please register as early as possible, as we need a minimum number of confirmed participants before we are able to book a model. Pre-registration allows us to avoid cancellation due to low interest.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a session due to low enrollment, weather or facility emergencies, please note will we notify registrants about cancellations via email. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)
