MAA Figure Model Sundays continues!  The Montgomery Art Association and The Compass Atelier are partnering to offer in-person figure model sessions on select Sundays. The 3-hour sessions are moderated but uninstructed, providing artists with focused practice time in the studio. Bring along any drawing or painting media that suits you.

Sessions will include short poses ranging from 2 to 15 minutes, with a final long pose lasting about an hour.  Models usually will be nude or semi-nude unless otherwise indicated in the event details below.  You must be an MAA member to register; however, you may also register a non-member guest as well. All attendees must be 18 years of age or older. 

We are offering morning AND afternoon sessions on each select Sunday. Morning sessions are 9:00 am to noon ET; Afternoon sessions are 1:00 pm ET to 4:00 pm ET.  Each session costs $10 per person per session to register.

If you're unable to join in person, we also offer a Zoom option.

  • October 1, 2023 - Morning and Afternoon - Moe 
  • October 8, 2023 - Morning and Afternoon - Nataliya
  • October 22, 2023 - Morning - Tom; Afternoon - Sheba
