About Drink & Draw

Join us for our monthly fun and informal Drink & Draw session led by local illustrator and Art Tutor Melissa Turland.

During the evening sessions you’ll have fun, learn useful drawing advice and get the chance to unwind with a glass of something whilst flexing your doodling muscles.

Everybody is welcome, no matter your creative ability! Materials are included but you are also welcome to bring your own.  You can take all your drawings home with you!

We cover a different topic every month, from drawing models, still life to using unusual ways of mark making to new materials!  Follow our socials for updates.

We recommend pre-booking as it can get quite busy! 

Free drinks to choose from include:

Pint of any soft drink
Pint of our draft Beer or Cider
175ml glass of wine
Hot drink

Vegan Options Available

Spring in Focus - gentle and observational drawing session inspired by the changing natural world around us. Through close looking and simple drawing exercises, we’ll translate the colours, textures, and forms of spring into expressive marks and lines on the page. This session encourages slowing down, noticing detail, and responding to nature in a personal way—whether working from direct observation or gathered references.
