Figure Drawing Series [September]

Join us for a two-hour figure drawing session at Actualize Gallery with artist and curator Lila Thomas, 2026 Neddy award winner and Artist Trust Fellowship recipient! Designed for artists of all experience levels, these sessions offer an opportunity to strengthen observational drawing skills, experiment with mark-making, and create in a supportive community environment.

The evening will feature a live figure model. Participants are encouraged to work at their own pace, and Lila will be available to offer optional guidance, feedback, and drawing tips throughout the session.
