The beachKraft is proud to host Life Drawing events with Live Models!

 

Live, clothed or nude models in traditional and themed poses.

 

Bring your own art supplies or purchase some at the gallery. You only need your sketchbook or drawing paper and a pencil, but you may bring any materials you prefer to use for figure drawing.

 

We have stand-up easels and tabletop easels available.

 

Beginners welcome! No experience necessary, we will coach those new to drawing or new to figure drawing.

 

$25 per session as we pay models in full - no tipping necessary, but still appreciated.

Live Model Drawing – Spring 2026

​

• Figure Drawing Fridays – 6:00pm – 8:00pm EVERY* Friday!

        (*We will be closed for July 4 holiday week)​

​

• Our working studio and gallery is equipped with lighting, stage and privacy curtains.

 

• “Undraped” (nude) figure drawing sessions are held twice a month, on the second and fourth Fridays of the month.

 

• Clothed and costumed sessions are held the first and third and fifth Fridays of the month. For clothed sessions, we encourage models to wear form-fitting clothing, or drapery that shows anatomy well. We do costumed and themed sessions October-December for our anime themed art show and holidays as appropriate.
