I ran and co-ran a number of special themed drawing events at the club, that aimed to keep the club fresh and exciting, such as 'Midnight Drawing'. This session was a 3 hour group pose for just 10 artists, between the hours of 10pm and 1am, and was promoted as a unique and mysterious experience. Rather than post promotional material for the event online, content was kept to a minimum, and artists were emailed personally about the event.
The 'secrecy' of the event, created a buzz, meaning that artists talked about the event, and we were able to run a second session.
Artists paid £20 to draw for the full three hours. The timelapse was photographed again by Sharon Kilgannon, and the video was created and edited by Kate Shields.
Other events include 'Suspended', where aerialist Kitty Peels hung from the ceiling for artists to draw, 'Music and Movement', a ballet and movement session, and 'Alt Couture', a session where with performer Arran and an array of wearable art made out of paper and plastic.
Both 'Midnight Drawing' and 'Suspended' have since been repeated, due to popular demand.
