Dr Sketchy
Dr Sketchy’s - when cabaret meets art school.
At last! The Anti-art class that took New York by storm has finally arrived in Belfast, courtesy of Penguin People Promotions! Dr Sketchy’s Belfast will be launching at the Out to Lunch Festival on Friday, 2 January 2009.
The little Brooklyn event that became a movement was founded in 2005 by artist Molly
Crabapple, Molly asked a simple question: Why can’t drawing naked people be sexy?
To answer her own question, Molly, herself an art student and model, combed New York to find the most beautiful burlesque dancers, the most bizarre circus freaks, and the most rippling hunks of man. Then, she opened the floodgates to everyone – artistic or not - and let them loose to have fun drawing the exotic models.

Interspersed with the posing are comedy skits and ridiculous drawing contests (best left handed drawing? Best incorporation of a penguin?) and the chance to win alcoholic drinks and silly prizes. Before long, artists across the world wanted in on Molly ’s kind of art class. From Hollywood to London to Melbourne, Dr Sketchy ’s began popping up across the globe. Dr Sketchy’s a worldwide phenomenon. Be part of it.
