Event Description
SKETCH NUDES, LISTEN TO CLASSICAL, EAT TACOS
Sunday, May 10th
+
Sunday, May 31st
6:30-11pm
Each MAY date includes 3 pre-chosen models, and 2 models drawn from the audience. For a chance to get nude, classy style, simply drop your name and favorite composer in the marked basket at the bar! You can win a prize and it's a unique opportunity to do something you'd always dreamed of doing...just not in the place you thought you'd be doing it!
Audience members are welcome to bring their favorite classical music requests to the bar. They are also welcome to show other artists their sketches during intermission. But hey, no one is going to act like your art teacher and force you to do it!
BYOSS: Bring your own sketching shit. Something with a hard back is recommended for sketching on, since tables + chairs are limited.

What's the deal with GET NUDE?
Have you ever thought, "Why can't I go to my local bar not ONLY to drink beer and eat saucy Mexican food, but also to sketch (or shyly glance at) modern nudes in various poses...whilst listening to dramatic classical music by the greats?"
If you have thought this, good! But this happens in the last place you ever thought it would...The Astoria, at
769 E. Hastings.
It's like a mixture of the going to the symphony + the Number 5 Orange. Just kidding. It's nothing like that.
