Slay Salon is a drag figure drawing party for artists and art appreciators. This weekly open format queer approach to traditional figurative art includes drawing, painting, music, drinks, live Q&A with each drag artist as well as demos in classical drawing and painting. This event provides a fun, lively, engaging, and approachable atmosphere for figure drawing in contrast to the often isolating, competitive, and overly serious settings of historically cis-hetero dominated ateliers, academies, salons, and schools.

Following is the schedule we will follow, but please feel free to hang out and enjoy the Slay Salon in whatever way you feel called to.
