Figure Drawing

Ready to rock out with banging tunes while drawing some fun poses?! Each semester we have weekly figure drawing sessions where students can master capturing a figure and their movement! Each session is $4 and each time you attend, you can get a stamp for your stamp card. For further information on figure drawing, please refer to the posters located in the Art Building and on our Instagram!

Feel free to bring any medium you would like when attending a figure drawing session: sketchbook, pencil, pen, paints, CarbOthellos, and more! We also have a cart of borrowable materials that you can use during the session. We hope to see you there!

We’ve compiled a list of different online figure drawing resources that you can utilize outside of figure drawing hours! We’ve included both free and paid resources so you can get a wide range of what’s out there.
