Here's what happens: whether you're a seasoned pro or don't know a pencil from a pen, we welcome all ages and all abilities - especially those of you who think you have no abilities whatsoever.
You can strut in and confidently do your thing, or declare yourself clueless and ask for help; you can show off your work, or swiftly close your sketchbook if you're shy. We welcome ALL of you.
Swing by the The Royal Dick Bar or Summerhall Cafe for a bevvy - hot or cold, alcoholic or non- and bring it in with you if you like. Drawing starts at 7pm and ends at 9pm. We sell out most weeks; please buy a ticket in advance and be timely. Sometimes there are some no-shows but door tickets are absolutely not guaranteed. We're in the gorgeous wooden-pewed Anatomy Lecture Theatre - it's a cosy space with great acoustics for our carefully curated playlists of eclectic tunes, or occasional live music. There is a different model every week.
We supply various drawing paraphernalia to borrow (including boards and fixative), and you can buy A3 paper, pencils and sharpeners from us, as well as lovely sketchbooks of different sizes. Do bring your favourite tools if you have them - but it's equally fine to turn up with nothing at all.
There are no guaranteed door spaces if the event sells out online. Feel free to contact me to be put on a waiting list, and if I have cancellations I will notify you and allocate you a ticket. Feel free to chance it in person, but no guarantees...
The cut off time for a guaranteed seat if you've an online ticket is 6.55pm - after which your ticket is non refundable and your space will be released to anyone waiting. This is to make sure we can start on time otherwise my poor doorperson is rather overwhelmed by the queue. If you know you'll arrive after that time and have an online ticket you can message me in advance (before 6.30pm) via the Reconfigure FB page, email me at reconfigurative@gmail.com
