Hacknakey - Life Drawing & Music
Life drawing & Naked Live Music
Join us for a great evening filled with artistic expressions based on live figure drawing.
"We host a unique evening of life drawing with live music performed by guest musicians local to East London. Every event we host showcases a new performer and we are continually in awe at the incredible talent we’re able to share with you.
The first half of the evening will be tutored, with a series of short poses, getting you out of your comfort zone, with playful exercises designed to get you thinking and seeing differently. We then take a short break where we recommend you get a drink from the bar - Kraft brew much of their drinks in house and we highly recommend you have a try!
The second half of the evening will feature live music from a guest musician who will be performing their solo work, naked. It's a wonderfully relaxing and supportive environment, where you’ll be transported to a place you won’t want to leave from. What could be more tranquil than being serenaded whilst sketching away?
Hacknakey is a safe space that promotes body positivity and celebrates all creative abilities. Absolute beginners and more advanced people welcome. This is a great place to meet new people… come alone or brings some pals!" - Emily
Some housekeeping:
- We provide paper, charcoal, and other surprise art supplies but if you wish to bring your own sketchbooks and materials please do!
- We are LGBTQ+ friendly and discrimination in any form will not be tolerated at our event.
