Happy New Year everyone! Welcome to Life Drawing in Melbourne CBD. If you’ve drawn with us before at No Vacancy Gallery (2008-2015) or Missing Persons (2016-2023) in the Nicholas Building, you’ll be pleased to know that we’ve relocated to Coates Community Arts in the Coates Building.
Last year, we proudly received a Lord Mayor’s Small Business Achievement Award from the City of Melbourne, recognising our longstanding commitment to the life drawing community in Melbourne.
From 15 January 2025, you can join us for weekly life drawing classes at Coates Community Arts, Suite 6, Level 4, 20 Collins Street. Check out the where page for public transport and parking options.
Our Life Drawing sessions run every Tuesday and Wednesday from 7-9pm, except on public holidays and during the Christmas holidays. Come and join us on Tuesday and Wednesday nights from 15 January 2025. Secure your spot for $22, inclusive of art supplies. Drawing paper and materials are provided.
Please arrive at least 5 minutes before 7pm to settle in. Doors open at 6:30pm, and we encourage you to arrive on time for a relaxed start.
We offer online bookings through ‘TryBooking’. Walk-ins are also welcome, and we accept both cash and card payments.
Life Drawing 16th Anniversary Class Exhibition: In November 2024, we celebrated our 16th anniversary with a pop-up class exhibition. Photos from the opening are on Facebook.
