By popular demand– evening life session!

On May 13, 2024, Quimper Arts kicked off our late PM life drawing program. It’s a “best of” our morning short pose and afternoon long pose formats, at the same price ($10 for members, $15 for non-members for a 2.5 hour session). Chris brought wine; others brought their dinners to eat between the afternoon and evening session. We have the use of a fridge, microwave and more for our all-Monday rental of the Masonic Lodge, 1338 Jefferson Street.

So if you haven’t joined us because your daytimes are scheduled, or you just want to have a full day (9:30 am to 8:30 pm) of sketching, drawing and painting from life, come join us! Members and non-members, any medium you prefer. Doors re-open at 5:45 pm for setup. We will start at 6:00 pm with a series of short poses, take a 15 minute break, and wrap up with a single one-hour long pose. We wrap up and put our toys away at 8:30 pm.

Thanks to Toni Rosetti for the photos!
