“Speed-Facing” Queer Drawing Mixer

Join us for a unique and delightful speed-dating event for queer people in Tucson, Arizona! Hosted at Slow Body, this night promises laughter, connection, and a touch of adorable awkwardness.

Participants will sit across from a new person every five minutes and draw their portrait without looking at the paper, encouraging lots of eye contact and genuine connection. You’ll have time to chat and exchange names, then reveal your hilarious drawings to each other for a guaranteed laugh! After the big reveal, jot down notes, names, or anything you’d like to remember your new friends.

At the end of the event, you'll fill out a form with the names of the people you'd like to hang out with again. Matches will be delivered to each person after the event ends.

Our expert blind contour portrait artist, Linus, will kick off the evening with a fun drawing warmup, ensuring everyone is comfortable and ready to enjoy the process. No drawing experience is necessary—it's all about making connections, not masterpieces!

Come for a night of "facing" each other, laughter, drinks, and new connections. We can't wait to see you there!

Please arrive about 15 minutes early if you can! This will give you time to grab a drink and settle in.

Note: this is a "blanket" queer event, not specific to preferences.
