Queer Figure Drawing Circle

QUEER FIGURE DRAWING CIRCLE is a unique session where, instead of a single model, everyone takes a turn posing and sharing about themselves.

Flipping the traditional concept of a figure drawing session, each attendee has the chance to pose while talking to the group about their experiences and inspirations. Meanwhile, the other participants draw them, creating a space for both artistic expression and personal connection.

At the end of the session, there will be time to view each other’s artwork and engage in conversation sparked by the shared experience.

Standing, sitting or even laying down. Maybe you're holding a prop? If you feel more comfortable with your back to everyone else, you can do that too :). Poses will range from 2-5 minutes.

You will fill out a short questionaire when you arrive with questions like "What's your background?", "What art do you create?", "What's something you've done that you're proud of", etc.

While posing, you can share your story. The facilitator will be there with your questionaire in case you need some help while posing.

While you pose and share, we will draw you. Hearing your story will be unique to each individual in the room. If there is something that resonates with someone, they may write it down and incorporate it into their sketch.

Please note that there will be two small dogs (Moose and Chip) at the event :).
