“DRAW! A Sketchy Evening at Dandy” is kind of like a school art class, in that everyone works on a project around a central theme. Except here, you get to drink and chat with your friends. I recently made my way to the vintage store/event space on Vliet to check it out. Each event is hosted by a local artist who shares a little about their work and picks the prompt for the evening.
If someone has inspired you through their service, leadership or dedication, the Unity Awards are your opportunity to recognize them!
This evening, it is Sheboygan-based artist XO Fiss (aka Xoe Fiss), and the prompt is to draw a pennant for a place or memory that brings you joy. Fiss sets a fun, positive tone. When we all share at the end – yes, that’s part of it – I am overwhelmed by how many different ways people brought the prompt to life. From fiber arts to rubber stamps to markers, every creation is unique and is met with a grand applause from the group … even my Barbie Dream pennant. I’ve already bought tickets ($5) to go back again on Sept. 25 at 6 p.m. Get tickets on Eventbrite.
