San Francisco Center for the Book

In this informal monthly session, we'll engage in unconventional exercises to spark fresh approaches to drawing.

If you're hungry for a challenge, or want to try new techniques, or if you simply want to draw in the company of others, join us on the third Thursday of the month. 

Please note, the featured photo is student work from a previous session; the exercises will change each month and it may not represent the techniques used in class.

Since each session is different, you may wish to sign up for multiple dates. No drop-ins, please.

Prerequisite:
None

Materials to Bring:
Bring your preferred drawing materials and an open mind. Paper and basic tools will be provided.
