(fr) Le Canal de l'Ourcq a été beaucoup utilisé pour transporter des marchandises et c'est ainsi que plusieurs bâtiments industriels ont été construits a proximité. Notre balade, au bord et pas loin du canal de l'Ourcq, nous emmènera découvrir certains de ces bâtiments au passé industriel mais qui sont maintenant utilisés pour montrer des expositions d'art. Plein de choses à voir et des lieux à l'histoire intéressante, donc plein de raisons de venir. On commencera devant la gare de RER Pantin et on finira pas loin du métro Raymond Queneau (L5). Prévoir 3h. Prix libre. Suggéré : 10€. (en) Lost of merchandise used to be transported on Canal de l'Ourcq and that's how several industrial buildings were created nearby. Our walk, next to and close by the canal, will let us discover some of these buildings that used to be used by industrial companies and now host art exhibitions. Lots of things to see and places with a rich past, so lots of reasons to come. We'll start in front of the Pantin RER station and we'll end not far from the Raymond Queneau metro station (L5). It should take us 3 hours. Pay as you feel. I suggest 10€.

Join us for a long pose workshop with a female model, led by figurative artist John Kelly. The session consists of 45 minutes of drawing or painting, followed by a 15-minute break, and then another 45 minutes with the same pose. John will be present throughout the entire session to offer individual guidance on the principles of drawing and painting from life. If you prefer a more self-directed approach, you are welcome to work independently at any time. The workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. It offers a supportive environment to develop your artistic style while exploring different aspects of academic drawing or painting, experimenting with new techniques, or refining compositional ideas. It's designed to guide your exploration of the human form through an anatomical lens while capturing the model's emotional presence. As always, posing for you are professional fine art models affiliated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris and other Parisian life drawing ateliers. Please bring your preferred art materials. All media are allowed, including pastels, ink, watercolor, or paint. If you need additional advice on materials, such as oil paints or watercolor paper, please don’t hesitate to contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or send us a message. This session doesn't provide a basic drawing materials set. Once again, please remember to bring your own art supplies. **About John Kelly** Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter. He employs traditional oil painting methods while also painting *alla prima*. Influenced by Balthus, Degas, and traditional Japanese prints, his figurative work explores the psychology of the model and the viewer’s gaze. For more details, visit John’s website: johnkellyart.com. We kindly ask everyone to RSVP to secure their spot. If you haven't booked, we reserve the right to deny participation if the session is full. For any questions about a specific session, feel free to contact us via Meetup or email your host / organizer at [deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) or [maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) **Early Bird Discount** If you book your spot at least 6 days before the session, you can enjoy a special early bird rate. After that, the regular price of €25 (excluding platform fees) applies to both untutored and instructed sessions.

Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or mixed media artist, this group is the perfect place to connect with like-minded individuals, have a space to work on your craft, and showcase your work.

This month we will be discussing **Frank Santoro**, an American cartoonist, painter, and comics critic known for his expressive lines, experimental page layouts, and vibrant use of color. His graphic novels—including *Storeyville*, *Pompeii*, and *Pittsburgh*—blend personal storytelling with innovative visual structure, often exploring memory, place, and relationships.

Afterwards, we will have time to work on our individual art projects, hang out, and if anyone is interested in feedback on their work, there will be time for that as well.

VEGAN MEALS: As previously mentioned, the food vendor does NOT have a vegan option at this year’s Oscar Party. However, we DO have a solution! I have reached out to several individuals who are affected. If you are a vegan, plan to attend the Oscar Party and did not receive an e-mail from me, please reach out via private message post a note below. I’ll provide details off-line. And while there won’t be a vegan meal option this year, I think we do have a workable solution. And, all other plans are usiness-as-usual: popcorn, sodas, candy, on-site paparazzi, decorations, bar drinks (including your first drink on the house), the Drexel’s Annual Oscar ballot contest, along with the Big Show on the Big Screen and a fun group of Movie Group friends to watch ‘em with!
