Eighteen models circulate throughout the drawing studios, including one devoted to costume modeling. Specific rooms are dedicated to poses ranging from the energy and frenzy of fast action poses, to sessions of five minutes, twenty minutes, and one-hour duration. There is also the opportunity to work from extended poses of three and six hours.

Live African drum music.

Pratt will also be offering prizes that are generously donated by area art stores and will be awarded at the end of the Draw-a-thon.
