Directory of Figure Drawing Open Studios, Workshops, and Continuing Education Classes

This is a directory of places where artists can draw, paint, or sculpt the human form from live art models. The list includes instructed and uninstructed sessions. Drawing groups come and go, and schedules change, so it is wise to confirm with the organizer before attending—website, email and/or telephone is listed for each group. Please report any defunct groups or nonfunctioning links to directoryartmodelbook.com.

If you find this resource useful, please tell your friends, mention in your blog, etc. Thanks!
