Dr. Sketchy's Baltimore: Burlesque Life Drawing feat. Orion St. Michael

A livelier life drawing event, Dr. Sketchy’s is where artists of all levels draw fabulous burlesque and variety performers. Enjoy delicious cocktails and compete in zany drawing contests to win free drinks and other awesome prizes! We’ll start off with quick 1- and 2-minute gesture poses and gradually move up to 20-minute sketches. No drawing experience is necessary; just bring your own drawing materials—plus generous cash tips for our model—and join us for some fun figure sketching practice!

For this month's Sketchy's, we're beyond excited to have the talented and gorgeous as our model/performer! In addition to posing for us, Orion has a very sparkly and spine-tingling sideshow performance in store for us. Here's more about out February muse:

"Orion St. Michael is a Baltimore-based performer and humanitarian championing education, mental health, and safe spaces for youth. When he’s not serving his community, he lights up the DMV with cosplay, variety and burlesque performances, and the occasional flash of fire-eating/breathing spectacle. Orion lives for the moment when smiles break out and eyes go wide—because nothing excites him more than awakening wonder and emotions audiences didn’t even know they had."

Come early to get the best seats and a drink—and even a delicious dinner—then stay after we wrap up to share your work with fellow artists over one last drink at the bar.

Doors at 6:00 pm, drawing from 7-10 pm. 18+ to draw, 21+ to drink. $15 in advance, $20 at the door, plus service fees for online and in-person credit card transactions. BYO drawing supplies. No photography, messy paints, or dip pens, please (watercolors are fine).
