"A superior night out with a whole new take on life drawing that's a far cry from an unyeilding and stuffy classroom."  The Big Issue on Dr Sketchy Glasgow

Dr Sketchy's is the little New York event that became a worldwide phenomenon.

Founded in New York in 2005 by artist and former life model Molly Crabapple, Dr. Sketchy's asked a simple question; why can't life-drawing classes be sexy?

Instead of static models being drawn by artists sitting in silence in a cold art class, Dr Sketchy is what happens when Cabaret meets Art School.

Models are burlesque performers, contortionists, fire-jugglers, cabaret stars, tattooed beefcakes, bodypainted dancers and sideshow freaks.  Short poses are accompanied by live music interspersed with performances from the talented models themselves.

Our charming hosts, Lucille Burn & Rufus T Fahrenheit award prizes and encourage the audience to make art and mischief in equal measure while cocktails and snacks are served from the bar.

LtoR: Ben, Daiquiri, Rufus, Lucille, Vendetta, Dolly, Cat. Front: Chopper

With events in over 100 cities across five continents, from New York to Melbourne, Paris to Tokyo, Dr Sketchy is arguably the biggest event in the world.

Look out your pencil case and six-inch heels - it's time to get sketchy in Glasgow!!
