Times: 6.45 for 7.00pm - 9.00pm
Price per studio evening: £3.00
Venue: Stockport Art Gallery
Wellington Road South
You can bring whatever
art medium you prefer. Most people who attend use acrylics, pastels or
sketching pencils.
A limited number of easels and drawing boards are provided free of
charge for the evenings. If you have your own easel you can bring it
along.
The costume models used on the Monday studio evenings tend to pose for an
hour at a time. From May 2009, on the first Thursday of every month,
the life drawing studio evenings will tend to do short sets of poses (5
minutes per pose) for the first hour, then a set pose for the final
hour. Remember it is your club, so
active help and good ideas from you are always welcome.
Each art studio evening last
for approx two hours with a 15 min break in between.
Tea & coffee is provided (25p per cup)
If you are interested in
joining after your first visit, you can either pick-up a membership
form at Stockport Art Gallery or print one off
this website (Go to the
APPLICATION FORM link).
It is advisable to become a member if
you wish to attend more than one art studio evening as you will be able to
benefit from a monthly newsletter, eligible to submit artwork to the
Guild's annual exhibition and attend workshops.
