Dr. Sketchy's: Creatures of the Deep

*NB RESCHEDULED DATE – NOW 26 NOVEMBER 2023*

Just when you thought it was safe to go in the water, a horrifying night of life drawing emerges from the depths of the ocean. It’s the Dr. Sketchy’s o-fish-al Halloween special – CREATURES OF THE DEEP!

What is Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School? It’s a life drawing session, sea-soned with burlesque and fishy behaviour. Think of it as a chance to flex your creative mussels and tuna out distractions. You can sketch in reel time, take on water (or other refreshments) from the bar, and have a sur-eel time.  

Watch out for what lurks in the depths and also poses on the sketchy stage. Our starring she-creature is Heaven Z’dor. She certainly has a lure – you’ll be so hypnotised by her glow that your distended jaw will be on the sea-floor. 

Your hosts are a trio of Sketchy sirens – Tawdry Trainwreck, Mythical Haze and Rosie Reckless. They’re not here to school you. They’ll just be swimming about, overflowing their C-shells… and fishing for compliments. 

Dress ups are encouraged so release the Kraken! Drown your fears about drawing – all artistic abilities are welcome – there’s no pressure here, so don’t get the bends. 

Our love for our sponsors goes deep – Absolution Pierce and Tattoo, Gordon Harris Art Supplies, Gryymstone and Treacle Emporium, and Concept Brewing. Special thanks to our hosts at Volstead Trading Co. 

There are “no dorsals” so reel in a ticket.  

First pose at 6.30pm. You're welcome to arrive earlier and soak up the salty atmosphere at Volstead Trading Co, perhaps try the chilli squid!
Bring your own art supplies – we will have a small selection available.
