Life Drawing

Life drawing is back at The Usher Gallery inside The Collection in Lincoln, running every Thursday from 6pm to 8pm, with arrival from 5.45pm. It's a regular slot, so if you can't make one week, there's another coming up shortly after.

The sessions are led by a specialist tutor in the relaxed setting of the gallery, and they're open to all skill levels. If you're just starting out, the tutor is on hand to guide you; if you've been drawing for years, you can just settle in and work at your own pace. There's a tea and coffee break during the evening, so you're not expected to keep your head down for the full two hours without a stretch.

It's a good one for a mid-week wind-down, especially if you fancy spending a couple of hours in a gallery rather than at home. The minimum age is 14, and under-16s need to be accompanied by an adult, so it works as a family thing if you've got a teenager who'd be up for it. Booking in advance is recommended, so it's worth getting your spot sorted before you head in.

Full price is £11, with a concession of £9 for those aged 63 and over, the unemployed, people receiving income support, those in full-time education, and people with impairments or conditions. That covers your place in the session and the refreshments during the break. It's every Thursday, 6-8pm, at The Usher Gallery, The Collection.
