Every Body Life Drawing is a diverse and inclusive peer-supported life drawing circle, welcoming artists of all experiences. As part of Sick of It, Every Body Life Drawing will be coming to Fourth Wall Folkestone.
Sunday 08 September
17:00-19:00
Tickets from £2.50
Their ethos is to be inclusive; welcoming artists and models of all bodies and levels of experience. The model for this session will be Dee.
FORMAT:
The session will run for 2 hours with a ~15 minute social break in the middle. Refreshments will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own snacks if you like too.
There will be some warm up drawing exercises to get us going and a mix of poses and pose lengths (1-30mins).
WHAT TO BRING?:
Some materials available (e.g. clip boards, some paper, pencils, rubbers, pastels and charcoal), but please bring your own materials if you can so that these can be shared with those who don’t have their own. Beginners with no materials absolutely welcome!
SUPPORTIVE AND INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT:
Every Body are committed to working with inclusive and accessible venues. Unfortunately, Fourth Wall is on a steep street which is cobbled an uneven. There is a step up into the space, and although it is on one level and the floors are flat and even, the doors are narrow therefore we regret that there is no wheelchair access to this venue.
Please note, this is a peer-supported space, with no formal instruction. It is a space for fun and encouragement. We welcome the sharing of positive feedback on each other’s work, but this is not a place to ask for or to give critique. There is no obligation to share your art work with others if you don’t want to.
COST:
EVERY BODY is a not for profit community project. We are asking for £5 per ticket to cover the model’s fee and our admin costs.
We are also offering £2.50 concession tickets if £5 is a barrier to you. If paying £2.50 is still a barrier for you, please get in touch, and we can work something out.
This workshop is part of Sick Of It. A month-long multidisciplinary series of creative events, talks, exhibitions and workshops exploring Women’s Health and diet culture.
