Drop-In Sessions at Xchanges

We offer Life Drawing, Portrait Drawing, and Sculpture Figure Studies in our gallery. Our sessions include Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday daytime sessions and a Monday evening Life Drawing session, which is similar to the Thursday morning session.

These are non-instructed sessions; all experience levels are welcome. It's a great place to meet other artists and hone your figurative skills in a supportive and creative environment.

Drop-in sessions are held in the gallery. Drawing boards, donkeys, sculpture stands and coffee provided. Participants provide their own materials.
