Figure Drawing on the Patio w/ The Casual Creative

This is not an instructed class, but rather a chance for you to put charcoal to paper and in community.
Beginners and first-timers are highly encouraged to join! It's a supportive and pressure-free creative environment. Guidance available for those who needed it.

About The Casual Creative
When was the last time you did something creative just for the heck of it? As kids we played and created things with our hands all the time. That’s how we explored new objects and mediums to figure out how they work, what they mean to the world and what they mean to us. As adults, we don’t easily get enough opportunities to play and explore without the pressure to be ‘good’ or ‘productive’. The Casual Creative is on a mission to create safe and cozy spaces with the right vibes, so you feel inspired to play.
