About this event

Join us at Helgi's Bar for an evening of artistic exploration like no other.


Date: Monthly on Tuesdays

Time: 8 PM - 10 PM

Location: Helgi's Bar | Hackney


Step into the shadows and sketch live models transformed by bold, theatrical corpse paint inspired by gothic vampirism and black metal aesthetics.

Whether you're picking up a pencil for the first time or you're a seasoned artist, all levels are welcome. We provide the materials — just show up ready to create.

Join us at Helgi’s Bar in Hackney for a night of dark expression and alternative art. Expect haunting visuals, heavy music, and a bar serving absinthe, Bloody Marys, and more.

Time Out describes Helgi's:


What's the vibe? A self-described 'occult rock bar', this is a heavy metal bar by any other name. If you like your music loud and your bands bearded, Helgi's is the one.

When to visit: After the witching hour. This place is open very, very late, every night of the week.

What to drink: A michelada, the mighty Mexican combo of beer, lime and clamato juice. Think of it as a Bloody Mary lite.
