Draw Brighton

The Drawing Circus is back! Come and draw costumed & uncostumed models at our themed life drawing day at New England House, Brighton.

After a 5-year hiatus The Drawing Circus returns to New England House for a one-day spectacular, marking the end of 16 years in our beloved studio-block. Join us for a day of immersive figure drawing with tableaus of clothed and unclothed models &amp; musicians who will pose for your drawing delight. Our troupe of models will hold a wide variety of poses from 3 minutes to 45 minutes long, accompanied by both live and recorded music. We are running two sessions so you can book in for the afternoon session, book on the evening session or book on both to make a day of it! If you can’t come along in-person you can visit a secret, online room of the Drawing Circus via Zoom in an online drawing session that will take place at the same time as the main event.Event links<ul><li>To find the 1-4pm in-person Drawing Circus click <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556306999129?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556306999129?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a></li><li>To find the 5-8pm in-person Drawing Circus click <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556324822439?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556324822439?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a></li><li>To find the 1-4pm (UK time) online Drawing Circus click <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556356487149?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556356487149?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a></li><li>To find the 5-8pm (UK time) online Drawing Circus click <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556388131799?aff=oddtdtcreator" title="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1556388131799?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a></li></ul> What to expectDrawing Circus models will be posing across several studios in New England House, with themed sets and group poses to draw.
