PARKING
Parking is provided for up to 2 free hours in the lot across the street by using the QR code at the door and entering their license plate number. Any parking beyond the free 2 hour period must be paid or moved to street parking. A&C is not responsible for any parking tickets incurred while in the store.
Street parking is mostly free in surrounding blocks, but can be extremely difficult to find.
If you ride a bike, you might want to bring it into the classroom because bike theft rate is pretty high in the area.
CLOTHING FOR POSE PRACTICE
(street clothes are fine, otherwise):
* Easy on-off shoes e.g., flip-flops, sandals, slippers or crocs...anything that will help keep your feet clean & safe during breaks
* Something to cover yourself when not in pose, like a robe or sarong (single private bathroom is in the store NOT the Classroom and you will need to be fully-clothed in the store; there is a small changing corner inside the Classroom)
FOOD:
* Lunch/snack & water vessel (we will take periodic breaks during which you'll be able to eat/hydrate)
* There is a cold/hot water dispenser in the classroom.
Please make any requests for accommodations known!
Apply privately, expect to volunteer in exchange:
* 1 Scholarship,
* 1 Discount, and
* 1 Giveaway
BRING:
* Note-taking materials (any digital note taking devices must have the camera covered with tape so as to respect nude models in the room)
* Instructor will time trainee poses, but be open to timing yourself (we’ll go over a timer app and how to program it/use it...egg timer is fine, too).
MASKS:
Masks are encouraged but not required.

For generations, Artist's Models have been used in the most famous works of art. If you've ever thought about being a participant in works of art, need some extra cash with a schedule that YOU control, or want to just be a part of art but have no artistic talent - this might be for you! We aim to include models of all gender, size, ethnicity, age, etc. Every body is different, beautiful & interesting in their own way!
This class is geared toward beginning models.
ABOUT THE CLASS...you will:
* Learn about the types of modeling
* Learn about marketing yourself
* Learn safety during your modeling sessions
* Have the opportunity to model (nude) for real artists
* Book one open studio session at Sunday Figure Art Seattle series (psst! this one gig can replace the cost of training!)
* Gain a solid reference for art school and community artist applications
MODEL TRAINEES ONLY:
11 am- 2 pm lecture/practice
2 pm - 3 pm Lunch Break!
MODEL TRAINEES AND ARTISTS BOTH:
