I just posted a piece on a Dr. Sketchy session in Boston (http://www.prx.org/pieces/65072-drawing-from-nightlife/edit). It was great to see how another producer approached the same event in a different city. I especially liked the use of music in this. --Tom

  • Summary: The international phenomenon known as Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School is a figure drawing session with burlesque and performance artists as models. What began in 2005 in Brooklyn as an alternative to traditional co-ops, has spread to 100 locations around the world. In Minneapolis, the two-hour drinking and drawing session takes place the fourth Sunday of every month at the 331 Club, and features irreverent drawing contests with prizes from local retailers. In this story meet host and producer Ophelia Flame, model and burlesque performer Queenie von Curves, and participating artists. For more information, visit Dr. Sketchy's Twin Cities on facebook, or go to drsketchy.com. Produced by Nancy Sartor.
