WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE NIGHT
Dating can be stressful! What do I wear? What do I say? What if there’s no spark?! With drawing proven to reduce stress levels, Quick Draw Dating resolves all of your concerns... Well, except for the outfit.. Here's what to expect on the night.
The evening is arranged in three parts: Check In : Please arrive promptly at 7:30pm. Grab a drink from the bar and come and introduce yourselves to your hosts. You will be issued with your name badge, drawing board and match form. 
Part 1 : Warm Up Guests will be lead through a group warm up session, where hosts Mish and Rob will share drawing and observation techniques designed to wake up the right side of the brain (the creative side) and get you really drawing what you see. If you have zero drawing experience this is for you. Our speed drawing techniques help you to let loose and not worry about the finished product.
Part 2 : Quick Draw Speed Dating Let the dating commence! The guys will be seated at their allocated table numbers and the ladies will rotate at five minute intervals until they have met all the male guests. Your hosts will keep time and ding the bell when it's time to rotate. Each five minute date will consist of three one minute drawing exercises and two minutes to chat. If you’re worried about being stuck for something to say, don’t panic! The drawing exercises will definitely give you something to talk about.
Part 3 : Art Battle The women face off against the men in a battle of the sexes. In this final round of drawing activities, outcomes will be judged by the hosts, with a bottle of bubbles up for grabs for the team who produces the most hilarious creation.  Private View : Following the session, guests will be invited to stick around for a "Private View" of the work they have created over the course of the evening, and of course to hangout with your new friends.
Match notifications :  Details of any "matches" will be shared with participants privately by the organisers within 48 hours after the attended event.
