Elysium Gallery & Bar

AOI Meet Ups

Community events allowing illustrators to meet and connect, either locally in various cities in the UK or online!

If the idea of drawing portraits scares you, this is the perfect night for you. We are throwing perfectionism out the window and embracing the chaos of a Rapid-Fire Portrait Workshop. Think of it like speed-dating, but instead of awkward small talk, you get to awkwardly stare at each other while sketching furiously!We’ll be rotating partners in quick bursts, forcing you to capture the essence of a face without overthinking it. It’s fast, it’s fun, and you’ll leave with a sketchbook full of character (and maybe a few new friends). 🎨 What to Expect:• Speed-Dating Style: Quick rounds of posing and drawing.• Low Pressure: The goal is quantity and experimentation, not a masterpiece.• Community: Chat with fellow local creatives in a relaxed AOI meet-up environment. 🎒 What to Bring:• A sketchbook (essential!)• Your fave materials (pencils, markers, charcoal—whatever you love to make a mess with).
