2. Drink & Draw: Live Flapper Dancing Drawing Class

Poster House, the first museum in the United States dedicated to the global history of posters, is taking it back to the 1920s with a motion-drawing class featuring live period dancers on January 19 from 6:30 to 8:00 PM at Poster House, 119 West 23rd Street in Manhattan. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased HERE.

Instructors Robin Mork and A.E. Kieren will teach participants the basics of live-motion figure drawing inspired by the acclaimed exhibition Art Deco: Commercializing the Avant-Garde. Afterward, attendees will practice their newfound skills by drawing performers from Gatsby Entertainment NYC — all while enjoying Prohibition-era cocktails.

Admission includes a complimentary cocktail from Café des Affiches and all materials will be provided.
