Picking the Right Life Drawing Class

A working art school rather than a party venue, the Melbourne Studio of Art opens its Elsternwick studio to private groups who want to draw from life, paint or work in clay with an artist guiding them. It has taught drawing and painting since 1998, and that grounding in observational work shapes how each session runs. What a private group session includes:

  • One of the school's teachers running the session, step by step.
  • Easels and materials supplied.
  • A choice of life drawing, painting, drawing, clay sculpture or a collaborative piece.
  • Projects pitched so total beginners and confident sketchers can work side by side.
  • Pricing from $650 per group for sessions held at the studio; headcount and project shape the final quote.

Elsternwick is south of St Kilda, and the studio's door is on Hoddle Street, just off Glen Huntly Road – a calm, creative choice for a birthday, a work team or friends who want to unwind together.

Who books a life drawing session

  • Adults marking a birthday or other celebration with something hands-on.

  • Friends who simply want to make something together.
  • Families, through separate sessions where parents, children and grandparents create side by side.

Practical points before booking

  • Staff are first-aid trained, and the studio describes itself as welcoming to people of all abilities.
  • Children's art birthday parties are a separate option, with every guest finishing an artwork based on the birthday child's interests.
  • The school was founded by artist and educator Dena Lester.
