Post Valentine's Drawing - Nashville Drawing Group - 2-16-10

Calling all lonely hearts to come draw with us on Tuesday! We hope to see you for what's sure to be another great session as we welcome back Marjorie as our model. The details remain the same, as does the nice price of $5. That's cheaper than a Baconator combo at Wendy's, plus we are low in saturated fat and cholesterol! Beat that, Wendy's!

Hope we see you there, and as always, feel free to contact us with any questions.

When
02/16/2010
6:30pm-8:30pm

Where
Woodland Presbyterian Church
211 North 11th Street, Nashville, TN 37206

Come draw with us! Parking in back, enter at rear entrance, follow the signs!

At present, we are doing clothed figure and portraiture. Despite our current venue, we are not religiously affiliated and everyone is welcome. $5.00 per session. We would appreciate an RSVP in advance to attend, or contact us directly, but you are welcome to just show up, too!
