Berlin School of Drawing ( born as Berlin Drawing ) has been founded in 2012.
Since than, we are regularly offering weekly classes and weekend workshops taught by trained artists. Following our classes, students will practice and learn through a strong program based mainly on an academic approach. Classes cover basics and advanced knowledge on drawing, panting, life drawing, illustration, sculpture, printing and more.

We also have regular untutored life drawing sessions, a now established event and a reference for sketchers in the area and from other parts of town. The session is an opportunity to draw and meet other sketchers, with experienced models posing for 2 hours in a beautiful location. Poses can go normally from 2 to 20/30 minutes or up to one hour on the long poses evening.
Lessons are conducted in English ( we speak also German ).
