I've been wanting to do some sort of in-person drink-and-draw for a while now. Nothing too directed or proscribed, just a bunch of people who like to draw doing so together while enjoying a few pints (or drams, or glasses, or whatevs), agreeing upon what to draw on the day. I've recently gotten the peeps at 71 Brewing's taproom Canvas to lend me their back-room event space for this purpose. I guess this is an open invite for any of you local Mefites to meet up with me for this, but anyone who you might want to bring along would be welcome as well, of course. 26th February, 2026, 71 Brewing's Canvas Taproom in Dundee. Might go monthly after this, if things go well. Hope to see you there.]]> https://irl.metafilter.com/4697/Drink-and-Draw-at-71-Brewings-Canvas-taproom-Dundee tag:irl.metafilter.com,2026:site.4697 Wed, 18 Feb 2026 23:18:55 GMT Pecinpah art canvas drawing DrinkAndDraw Dundee fun MeetUp Scotland sketch taproom 56.4605938 -2.97019 https://irl.metafilter.com/4697/Drink-and-Draw-at-71-Brewings-Canvas-taproom-Dundee/rss January's thread.
