This is a new life drawing class in Harrow-on-the-Hill. The class is open to all and we particularly welcome those who are trying life drawing for the first time. The event is hosted by Glen, an experienced life model and member of the Register of Artists' Models. The class will start promptly at 6 pm and finish on time by 8 pm. There will be a mix of short and longer poses. Drawing materials will be provided, along with tea and coffee (or a glass of wine if you prefer). Please note that the session takes place in a dedicated studio space at my home in Harrow-on-the-Hill: by day, it is a professional photographic studio. It is a private, quiet environment suitable for focused work. What better way to start your early Friday evening and weekend?  Alternative timings can be requested if Fridays do not suit you. Come along, relax and enjoy a great drawing experience! Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/harrow_life_drawing?igsh=MW0zMnZudm9mNzVr&utm_source=qr

# Drinks @ Cahoots, Once a 1940s Air Raid Shelter, With 2 Glasses of Wine **Switch up your socials in 2026** Anyone up for an unusual social gathering for drinks at Cahoots? Join us for an unforgettable social evening of drinks and conversation. It's a quirky venue, good vibes, and like-minded people with post-war interiors. If you’re fed up with the same old socials, join us and try something a little more fun, quirky, and memorable. Because socials don’t have to be boring. This event includes 2 glasses of wine, food is served at this venue at an additional fee. **7pm - 10.30pm** Step into Cahoots Underground and let the Southbound and Northbound Platforms come alive with sensational live music that echoes through every corner of our subterranean hideaway. No matter where you station yourself, the rhythm of our live band will be on track to keep the party chugging along smoothly! **10.30pm - 2am Feel free to stay till the early hours if you wish** Retro DJ Mark Charade is spinning the sounds of a bygone era from vintage to vanguard, guaranteed to get you up and grooving. Join the Scoundrels in The Underground for live entertainment and jolly good tipples until the early hours of the morning. Many moons ago, a band of ne’er-do-wells and Scoundrels chanced upon a hidden treasure beneath London’s bustling Soho: the long-forgotten Kingly Court Underground Station. Once a 1940s air raid shelter, it had served as a makeshift refuge for all sorts, evidenced by the oddities left behind—old toys, piles of tinned food, dusty lampshades, and higgledy-piggledy furniture, all jumbled together in a cosy attempt at a ‘home away from home.’ When the Scoundrels unearthed this secret station after the war, they knew they’d struck gold. Splitting their operations between the Northbound and Southbound platforms—with the Tube Carriage proudly perched in Northbound—they set up shop, turning the station into their latest illicit hideaway. Here, they could keep the post-war spirit alive, flout the rules of rationing, and peddle top-notch bootlegged cocktails, all while throwing the most spiffing, swinging parties late into the night. **Price £20 Non Refundable Unless Cancelled** **PLEASE RSVP ONLY ONCE YOU HAVE MADE PAYMENT, IF YOU RSVP WITHOUT MAKING PAYMENT YOUR RSVP WILL CHANGE TO NOT GOING.** **PLEASE PAY VIA LINK TO GET A SOCIAL LIFE MEETUP BELOW** [Drinks @ Cahoots, Once a 1940s Air Raid Shelter, With 2 Glasses of Wine, Fri, Feb 20, 2026, 7:00 PM | Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/passionate-about-travelling-food-and-events/events/313020828/?eventOrigin=notifications&notificationId=%3Cinbox%3E%2112493109-1769182723941) **What's Included** 2 Glasses of Wine Meeting New People Coming out of your comfort zone Live band from 7pm DJ after 10pm Get Social Friendly Host Admin and Host Fees **Not Included** Food Extra drinks Hope you can make it as we travel back in time to the 40s, dress up if you wish in 1940's style, i definitely will be.

# **Band and caller TBA** Beginner lesson at 1:30, regular dancing begins at 2:00 pm NOTE THAT WE ARE TEMPORARILY DANCING IN THE AFTERNOON INSTEAD OF EVENING. Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
