Join us in the park this Sunday afternoon for a special outdoor gesture session with Madeleine and LP LadyPoser in Riverdale park!

Setup is behind the East End Arts clubhouse on the grass. We got rained out last time, so we’re delighted that the forecast looks perfect for this weekend.

Drop in for $25, no registration required. All gear is first come first served, so arrive early to grab a spot. We sell newsprint pads on site for $5 - just bring your charcoal.

Poses will range from 5-25 min (lots to draw with 2 models!)

Questions? Shoot us a DM! We’re happy to help you get set up and oriented.

See you on Sunday!

This weekend! It’s our second outdoor lifedrawing session of the summer! We’ve got some heavy hitters this round:

Very excited to welcome back fan favourite to pose for us again. Who will he be this time??
and Caleb Collins will be bringing their synthesizers and guitars to the dreamy shade of Riverdale park to create some wonderful tunes for us.

As always, these sessions are drop in (no registration required) and are open to everyone! We provide all benches, easels and drawing boards, but they are first come first served.

We start right at 11:30am, but we recommend arriving early to find a spot and set up on the grass behind the clubhouse

Join us in the cozy on Tuesday eve and paint with us! This is our last weekday eve session of the summer. These sessions tend to be bit lower key, slower paced, and great for experimenting with media.

This is NOT a gesture session. We will have single, n**e pose held for the entire 3 hours. Painters welcome!

A friendly group of artists and an expressive new model
$25 drop in - starting at 6:30pm
Doors are open at 6pm for setup.

Cash or e-transfer upon arrival. Newcomers/ first timers very welcome! Bring some snacks!

It’s that time again! We’re hauling our drawing gear out onto the sunny grass of Riverdale park for our first outdoor session of the season! The forecast looks great and we’ve got a great lineup for you this season at the clubhouse

The enigmatic returns to grace us with his dreamy tunes

We’ve got the striking MARIA posing for costumed gestures

Poses start at 11:30am on the dot - arrive early to grab a spot! Chairs and gear are limited to first-come-first-served

The May sessions can be a bit tricky with the weather, so we have the option of hosting indoors if needed - but we are praying for sun, and are determined to be outside!

$25 to participate and draw - free to just hang out, watch and enjoy the music. Paper sold on site for $5 a pad, clips and boards provided.

We accept cash or e-transfer to [email protected]

See you this Sunday!

We’re excited about this one!
Last year we hosted the dashing reenactor IAN at the clubhouse to pose in his incredible handmade historical clothing. It was so fun we invited him back this month to start a 2 week pose.
We will be inside the studio this time - slight changes to costume (he has so many!) and a great dramatic studio setup in mind.

This is a TUES EVENING pose starting at 6:30pm - you can come to one, or both! Sustained session - one pose held for the entire 3 hours.
Start priming your canvases!

All mediums welcome - drop in for $25
Doors at 6pm for setup
