We're excited to introduce a new free weekly program at the Van Aken District:

Community Figure Drawing Nights at the Event Center (above Paloma), 20021 Walker Road, Shaker Heights, OH 44122.

Led by local artist and educator Amanda Lincoln, this casual, drop-in gathering is a welcoming, body-positive space for artists of all skill levels to practice figure drawing in a relaxed, supportive environment. No instructor, just good vibes and creative energy.

Live (fully clothed) volunteer models from the community. Artists exchange a drawing with the model each week. Open to all: beginners to professionals. Bring your own materials (pencils and simple materials). No registration required.
