  What is figure drawing?
    To get technical and arty, figure drawing is "a study of the naked form in its various shapes and postures". Having inspired everyone from Michelangelo through to Matisse, figure drawing classes were banned to women until only last century. Think of the Artful Bachelorette as a way to right this injustice…

  Do you only do Bachelorette parties?
    Be it a birthday, reunion, whatever – we love hosting groups that find any occasion to celebrate.

  Is it strictly for girls?
    All-male groups and mixed groups are more than welcome.

  So that means gay parties?
    Absolutely.

  Does it matter if we can't draw?
    No! It's not about being Picasso – just expect to learn a little and laugh a lot...

  Who runs this company?
    We're two women from Australia who have lived in New York for years.
Back Down Under, these parties are the most popular way for ladies to celebrate their bachelorette's celebration. One of us has taught hundreds of such classes in Oz, while the other has attended more than her fair share. When we realized that no one was offering this to ladies in New York, we decided to do something about it.

  When do you run classes?
    We can accommodate classes any day of the week. However Saturday
afternoon and early evenings are by the far the most popular times, so
we recommend booking for these times as soon as possible to avoid
disappointment.

  Will it just be us or do other groups participate?
    It will only be your group.

  Do I need to pay a deposit?
    In order to secure your booking you will need to pay a non-refundable
$300 deposit.

  Is there a minimum or maximum group size?
    There is no minimum or maximum number of participants. However there is a minimum charge, which is the equivalent of a group size of 12.

  Are the models really, really cute?
    Yep.

  Is the model completely naked?
    He will be. However if you feel it will make you more comfortable, we can convince him to wear a swimsuit.

  Do we get to keep our drawings?
    You can take your drawings with you, or we'll happily collect them and post them to you free of charge.

  What happens during the class?
    As the class starts, fun music will be playing and a waiter will provide you with bubbly. Throughout the class, our professionally trained teacher will run fun activities that allow the group to relax and find their inner-artists. There is a break midway through the two-hour session, which is a great opportunity to enjoy some of the complementary finger food.

  Can we photograph the model?
    At the end of the class there will be a photo session with the model. Should you wish to take photos during the class, we ask that you hand the camera to the teacher, who will happily take the pic for you. This is how we ensure our model feels comfortable.

  Are there any age restrictions?
    21+ for anything but private venues.

  Should I invite my mother/aunt/grandmother/future mother-in-law/etc?
    We hope you do. The Artful Bachelorette has come to New York to provide a tasteful alternative that makes everyone feel comfortable.

  Do you do bespoke packages?
    These are our second favorite kind of package.
Contact us on +1 (646) 470-1760 and we'll make it happen.

  Are tax and tips included?
    Tax is fully included. Our models and staff are well compensated, however they are also very professional and charming. So tipping is never expected and always appreciated.

  How do you pay on the day?
    We accept cash and all major credit cards. We request that our customers pay as a group.

  Can I work for the Artful Bachelorette?
    Be it as an art teacher, or an artfully handsome model, we are always looking for professional, fun and skilled members to join our ever growing team. Email us at <insert email>, with a cover letter and CV.

  Not in New York?
    We're expanding nationwide, so would still love to hear from you.

  Are you only in New York?
    For now, but not for long! We've had interest nationwide and are excited to say that the Artful Bachelorette might be headed to your neck of the woods sooner rather than later...
