(More events will be posted as their details are finalized. Please see our calendar)


Open Figure Drawing Inc. presents
The Holiday-tacular

at WCC during the Wednesday Night Figure Drawing session on December 17th, 2008.

The Holiday-tacular is a regular drawing session that features our very own multi-talented Chuck Westfall as deejay. Some of you may know Chuck as the deejay for for our Halloween special event, "The OFD Drawing Spook-tacular," one of our most successful events. One night a year wasn't enough for Chuck's fans, so Chuck came up with the idea for the Holiday-Tacular, with music & props appropriate for the holiday (like skeletons & jack o' lanterns). Chuck will try to play music that you don't hear every holiday season in shopping malls or on TV specials.

Chuck usually brings extra snacks when he deejays, so hopefully he will this time too.
