Calling all artists!

At -Samantha Thompson Studio - 81 Goggin rd, Lethbridge

When 12pm to 3pm - Sun 31st May 2026

The BOP arts has answered the call for a monthly draw and art catch up. So many people have mentioned their lack of basic drawing skills, and the need to get together and chat all things art. So we have combined the two! This isn't a class, this is a friendly gathering of like mined people that can chat and work on a creative skill.

To start we will focus on still life, I will set up interesting objects on the table in the studio and we can sketch. Don't want to sketch? Totally fine, bring along a lap project -stitching, scrapbook etc and enjoy the conversation. (No digital please)

We hope to host this event monthly. So in short...

+ Drawing focus - bring your own supplies

+ Conversation will be casual but with a focus on the arts, seen a great exhibition? Need advice about a work of art?

+ Limited space - The studio holds max 8 people

+ Afternoon tea, coffee, tea and cold drinks provided.

+ All welcome, you don't need to be a member of the BOP

+Over 18 only, over 12 ok with a guardian in attendance.

The cost is $10 - This money goes straight to the BOP arts co-op for future creative projects. Think of it as a donation to the group.

This draw and art catch up is hosted by Samantha Thompson, a professional artist and director of The BOP Arts, at her studio in Lethbridge. (www.samanthathompson.com.au)
