Life Drawing Tonight at Faultline Gallery — Join Us for an Evening of Figure Study
There’s something cathartic about starting the week with a pencil in hand and a model in the room. Every Monday night, artists from all across Oakland gather at Faultline Gallery for three focused hours of figure drawing — and we invite you to join us tonight.
Whether you’re refining your anatomy skills, warming up your creative muscles, or simply looking for a quiet, meditative place to draw, our weekly session provides a welcoming environment for all skill levels. No instruction, no pressure — just the model, and a supportive community of artists.
Session Details
Time: 6–9pm (doors open at 5:45)
Location: Faultline Gallery, 3908 MacArthur Blvd, Oakland
Cost: $20 - [Tickets Here] or pay at the door (cash, Venmo, PayPal)

We rotate models frequently to keep the poses fresh and inspiring. Short gestures, long poses, and breaks throughout the evening give everyone time to explore different approaches and settle into a rhythm.

Charcoal, pencils, pens, markers, or your favorite drawing tools
We have drawing horses, easels, tables, and drawing boards available
Chairs are provided, and the gallery offers plenty of space to spread out. The mood is relaxed and focused — a perfect way to reset after a busy weekend.
