Drawing the human body has been a foundational part of artistic development forever! MAWA offers figure drawing with live models in a feminist environment. No need to register, just show up. Doors open at 6:30 pm to give you time to set up. The model begins at 7 pm for quick gesture drawings, followed by longer poses. Participants are asked to bring their own materials. Drawing boards are provided.
Accessibility information:
MAWA is located on the second floor of 329 Cumberland Ave. There are 6 steps in the building when you enter from Cumberland (buzz 77 for entry) and an accessible entrance with a ramp when you enter from the east parking lot (call us at 204-949-9490 for entry). MAWA is on the second floor and can be accessed by one flight of stairs (20 steps). For folks unable to use the stairs, a freight elevator is available (call us at 204-949-9490, and we will bring you up!) The freight elevator is located at the back of the building. It is approximately 30 paces from the ramp entrance and 65 paces from the front entrance. MAWA's space is approximately 15 paces from the elevator.
There are two single occupancy, gender neutral washrooms on the same floor as MAWA. One washroom is large enough to accommodate a manual or standard wheelchair and it has a grab bar, but the toilet is slightly low. However, the footprint is too small to accommodate the turning radius of a power wheelchair. If you let us know you are coming, we will make arrangements to open an accessible washroom on the ground floor. All washrooms are single occupancy and gender neutral.
MAWA opens 30 minutes before each program is due to begin. ASL interpretation is available for programs with 2 weeks notice.
