So much going on! So much plotting and planning! Fall is coming...(trying not to be sad about it)

Sunday September 12, 2010 2.30-5.30pm
Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School Burlesque Life Drawing Session
featuring: Marilyn Meow
Great Scott
1222 Commonwealth Ave Allston (at corner of Harvard)
$8 2.30-5.30pm 18+ (bring your ID, this is a bar)
media: click images to the right for high res download.

Our model this month is new foxy feline: Marilyn Meow!

Dr. Sketchy is the life drawing session you dreamed of in your deviously creative art school head. Hot models with crazy costumes, sometimes genderbending antics, poses that keep your interest for hours, nice folks around you, drinks, and it's cheap. The models talk and keep you entertained, there's good music, you could win prizes for good and bad art! You don't have to be a good artist, or someone who draws everyday. Dr. Sketchy is a great place to start back up with your practice, or to try to pick up a new creative outlet.

We start with short poses to get you warmed up and then move on to longer and longer poses, but that's about where the traditional life drawing session stops...

Union Square Somerville!
Right in the Square next to SCAT and in front of Precinct and The Independent!

Time: 3-7pm (load-in/load-out is about an hour before and an hour after)

for advanced tix hit this link.
tickets $10, all ages, 9:30

CineMental is taking a bit of a break this summer and partnering up with The Brattle on showing some films a little off mission, but nonetheless tantalizing. This will give them the opportunity to do programming on all Wednesdays and give me a break from programming so I can work on getting stellar films for Fall.

We'll have an update soon on what the first collaboration screening will be.
