Dr. Sketchy’s NYC is back and CONEY-ier than ever!

Coney Island USA

Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s is bringing its alt-art party to the home of NYC neo-burlesque, Coney Island USA. The original NYC Drink &amp; Draw, Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s was originated in 2005 when Molly Crabapple combined life-drawing, new-wave cabaret, and an atmosphere of joyful, boozy conviviality. Featuring burlesque performances, live art models and art games -- as well as beer and wine from the WORLD FAMOUS FREAK BAR -- Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s is a warm, welcoming environment for solo artists, or groups of friends to make art for a chance to win some prizes! Boards, paper, pencils and art supplies will be provided, but you&#x27;re welcome to bring any media you prefer!Our September theme is SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS -- and your art teacher and host, Rita N. Wink, is bringing some of her LOONIEST, TOONIEST models for performances and poses inspired by your favorite animated characters.B﻿ring your super-friends (or arch-nemeses) for an afternoon of universe-colliding, canon-confouding, 3-D exploration of 2-D nostalgia that will smudge the fine line between celebration and desecration.Doors open at 12:30. Drawing starts at 1pm.

•WHAT IS DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S ANTI-ART SCHOOL?Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s Anti-Art school is the world&#x27;s premier alt.drawing movement. Artists draw glamorous underground performers in an atmosphere of boozy conviviality. Founded in 2005 in a dive bar in Brooklyn, Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s has now spread to over 100 cities around the world.•WHO STARTED DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S?Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s was founded in 2005 by artists Molly Crabapple and A.V. Phibes. It&#x27;s been run solely by Molly Crabapple (and her cadre of awesome helpers) since early &#x27;06. You can see more of Molly&#x27;s art at www.mollycrabapple.com•WHERE DID YOU COME UP WITH THE DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S ANTI-ART SCHOOL NAME? WHAT ARE ART MONKEYS?Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s is a corrupt Viennese doctor of our invention. Anti-Art School we chose because we were bad art students. &quot;Art Monkey&quot; was nicked from a late night we spent building steel weasels with New York&#x27;s legendary Madagascar institute.•WHO GOES TO DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S?Lots of people. Fancy pants gallery artists, art students, dog walkers, jewelry designers, tattoo artists, illustrators and cubicle slaves. We have about 40% non-professional artists. Slightly more girls attend than boys.•DO I HAVE TO BE AN ARTIST TO ATTEND DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S?No. Lots of people who have never drawn before attend Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s. We&#x27;re a fun, non-judgmental environment to try your hand at drawing.•DO SERIOUS ARTISTS GO TO DR. SKETCHY&#x27;S?Yes, including world famous ones like Ron English, Alasdair Grey and Audrey Kawasaki. While we are accepting of non-artists, there&#x27;s no reason you can&#x27;t go to Dr. Sketchy&#x27;s to seriously get your draw on.•HEY, WHY ISN&#x27;T THE MODEL NAKED?! I THOUGHT THIS WAS A DRAWING CLASS?Many cities have laws against combining booze and nudity. Besides, our models show more than enough pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi.•I&#x27;M ONLY 18.
