Dr. Sketchy's is returning to Chicago after a brief hiatus. Studio L'amour is now the proud new home of Dr. Sketchy's. The first date for dirty drawing will be March 15th. Save the date! Model and details to be released soon.
This is so exciting! Michelle
PS. Three cheers for Ginny Fizz and Lime Ricky, who were holding Sketchy's Chicago down for over a year. I will hope to do both of you proud.

September 27 October 25 November 22
You get the idea. All you need is an interesting look, two outfits, and the ability to sit still for relatively long periods of time in poses of your choosing.
And, we pay you!

The Gay Lesbian Artist Network, Chicago (GLANCe) and Big Chicks will be introducing a GLBT themed session of Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School to the north side of Chicago.
In exchange for $10, artists are treated to burlesque dancers, carnies and fetish divas modeling in elaborate costumes for a life-drawing session with a twist. During breaks artists compete for booze and prizes.
This event will feature a 3 hour life-drawing session with 2 models. The theme for the event will be "Naughty and Bawdy, Tool Time Taboo". Our models will be making the construction zone a little sexier.
The session will take place at Big Chicks on 5024 N. Sheridan Road on January 19, 2007, from 3 pm to 6 pm. A donation of $10 for participation is suggested. Those attending must provide their own sketch pads and materials.
Started in Brooklyn by artist and burlesque girl Molly Crabapple, Dr. Sketchy's now has more than 40 branches around the globe, including Hollywood, London, Berlin, Edinburgh, Toronto, Auckland, and Melbourne. Dr. Sketchy's Chicago is the first branch to include a regularly scheduled GLBT theme. Dr. Sketchy's Chicago meets at Five Star Bar & Grill at 1424 W. Chicago Avenue every fourth Saturday for burlesque life-drawing sessions. All Dr. Sketchy sessions are GLBT friendly.
