Each class at Life Drawing Manchester offers a unique and engaging experience. From short gesture poses to longer sessions, our classes are designed to challenge and inspire artists of all backgrounds. After the drawing session, join us downstairs at the Peer Hat for our legendary after-social, where you can share your work, connect with fellow artists, ‘meet with
Manchester’s vibrant mix of creatives’ ie. emphasise the social and more light hearted element as
‘Manchester’s arts scene’ suggests a more professional artist environment which may possibly alienate some
hobbyists or people just looking for a more casual fun and creative activity to do in the week.
