DRAWING CENTER STUDIO



SUMMER TERM 2008
June 23 - September 13

 


OPEN FIGURE • SUMMER 2008

Open Figure is an uninstructed life-drawing studio format whereby professionals, students, and the creative public can work side-by-side in common pursuit of excellence in the discipline of drawing (or various other media) while working from the nude model. This no-performance-pressure environment inevitably leads to new learning, support, and productivity that complements formal study (at the high school, college, or professional level), or other non-figure-related artistic work. Each session is moderated by Manifest Associates who are trained and well-qualified artists and/or instructors at the college level.


Three different weekly options:
Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and/or Saturdays

10 two-hour uninstructed weekly life drawing sessions.

Tuesday
and Saturday sessions will provide a minimum of ten different poses across ten weeks. At the moderator's discretion multiple shorter poses may be set up during any given meeting.

Wednesday sessions will provide a maximum of FIVE different poses across ten weeks (2-day or 3-day poses will be standard). This session is designed to offer the multi-day poses so larger or more refined works can be completed

Participants are welcome to work in various media.


TERM:
Summer sessions begin Tuesday, June 24th.
No session on July 5th.


SCHEDULE:
Tuesdays, 7-9p.m.
Wednesdays, 7-9p.m.
Saturdays, 9-11a.m.

PRICE:
$75 per section. Up to a 15% discount is offered for registrants for multiple sections. $50 for students with valid student I.D. and academic reference.

ENROLLMENT LIMIT:
20 participants per section




MODERATORS:

Tuesdays: Trevor Ponder, Manifest's long-time session moderator is the host for Tuesday sessions.

Wednesdays: Kevin Muente, Professor of Painting at Northern Kentucky University is the moderator for Wednesday sessions.

LOCATION:

Hosted at Manifest's Drawing Center
Studio (147-153) in the ESSEX Studios Complex in Walnut Hills (see map and directions links below). The studio is a 1700 square-foot sky lit studio space.

Drawing horses and easels as well as storage shelf space are available on a first-come first served basis. Supplementary seating, including chairs, stools, and cushions is also available. Participants should provide for their own supplies and drawing board.

Participants will be eligible to participate in Manifest's Essex Art Walk activities.

WALK-IN POLICY:
Walk-ins (one-time or part-time participants) are welcome. Each visit on a walk-in basis costs $10 per person. This is to allow those who cannot find time to participate every week to take advantage of the value of Manifest's studio program. NOTE: Walk-ins still must register via our registration page (see link below) and select the 'walk-in' option, including the date to be attended.
