Artists gathered at the Museum of Ventura County for a twice-monthly figure-drawing session put on by the museum’s resident artist Ryan Carr.

These free sessions allow artists to practice their craft by drawing live, clothed models using charcoal, pencils, pens, pastels — any medium that isn’t paint or any other liquid.

Sessions are held at the Museum’s Smith Pavilion or in a local brewery. Participants must be 21 or older. For information on the next event, check venturamuseum.org
