There is more than meets the eye lurking in the back alleys of downtown Champaign.
A life drawing class at the Boneyard Pottery was started years ago by Bill Baher. After Baher's passing, Ron Karlstrom, an artist and good friend of Baher's, and Michael Schwegmann — owner of Boneyard and artist — decided to keep it going. Now called M.E.L.D. (Monday Evening Life Drawing), the group meets every week at 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. inside Boneyard Pottery on 403 S. Water St. in Champaign. The class costs a mere $7 and newcomers are always welcome.
Set in the back room of Boneyard Pottery, the studio space is cozy and raw, the group is lively and come from various levels of drawing skills. They provide chairs, stools, table space and tray tables — and if you prefer an easel, you can bring yours along.
