The Drawing Circus
Theatrical life drawing

Saturday 22 November 2025
5.30pm – 10.30pm

Join us for a very special evening of narrative life drawing and live music

To celebrate The Shelter of Stories exhibition we’ve teamed up with the incredible team from The Drawing Circus for a one-of-a-kind life drawing experience. Expect theatrical poses, costumed and unclothed models, rich storytelling and live music that fills the space. It’s a joyful untutored session designed for everyone from curious beginners to creative explorers.

You’ll have the chance to explore the exhibition after hours with time to eat, drink and soak up the buzz. A street food-style menu and fairy tale inspired drinks will be served in our lively welcoming café-bar until 8.30pm. Make a night of it!

Choose from two drawing sessions, 6–7.30pm or 8–9.30pm, and bring along your favourite dry drawing materials. We’ll provide the boards, the models and the inspiration.

Sponsored by Draw Brighton.
