VENUE:

Cygnet Square is a short walk from Abbey Wood Station and is south of Southmere Lake. TACO! is opposite The Nest Community Centre and Library.

TACO! is an non for profit artist-led organisation supporting research, production, and exchange in Thamesmead and SE London.  They understand artistic practice to be a social tool for making the world anew. They aim to foster artists and art practices as valued, vital and useful to creative communities, civil society, and the realisation of shared equitable futures.

CAR

Parking is limited in the area though free parking is available at the far end of Wolvercote Road (SE2 9TQ). 

 Models are booked for 2 hours so please make sure you get here early to start promptly. Drawing starts on the dot at 7 and finishes at 9pm. It’s always interesting to see other people’s version of the same model and take photos of the artwork created. The sharings are never compulsory, but often, I’ve found that the few that didn’t want to share initially, found something of their work to show, even just me, and that is a privilege. 

Materials:

Please bring our preferred drawing materials and sketchbooks. There is good quality drawing paper for sale if you run out, and a limited amount of drawing boards to borrow for the session. 

The timings are roughly as follows:

2 minute continuous movement

10 second poses (for 2 minutes) 

3 x 2 minutes

3 x 5 minutes

7 minutes

10 minutes

15 minute break

5 minute warm up

Whatever we've got left of the hour until 9pm

These events at Jubilee Hall are fully supported by Thamesmead Now and Peabody
