Like the leaves, many changes are happening at Dr.Sketchy’s RVA! We let the starting hour fall back and now have a new home at THE LAIR! And what a better way to celebrate this new move than to release some monsters?
Would you prefer Dracula, Frankenstein’s monster, or the Mummy? You know, how about all three?! The lovely monsters are some of Richmond’s burly girls that like the classy yet darker side of things…Lilly Von Grimm, Deanna Danger, and of course, one of our favorite comebacks…DEEPA DE JOUR!
Known as the 'Delectable Dish,' Deepa de Jour is the producer of the Richmond Burlesque Revue, and was one of our very first branch models!

Dear Boss…
We love you guys. We love Halloween. So for this October session we are bringing you some amazing treats to begin sharing the Halloween holiday spirit!

That’s right, I said four. FOUR. FOUR MODELS.
I present your October theme of …JACK THE RIPPER!!!

MELODY MAGPIE!!!
This burlesque beauty will have you giggling in geeky delight with a mix of strange, adorable, and nerdy.

Happy June Art Monkeys!
Spring has sprung, trees are green to the brim, and the warmth of summer is creeping in with the daylight of every morning...a perfect recipe for the flower of the month, the rose to bloom in all it's beauty!
This month at Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School Richmond, VA Branch we have not one, but TWO Roses, in their double edged duality of stark elegance and thorny strength. Performance art duo, NAME OF THE ROSE featuring Headmistress Deanna Danger Rose and Mister S will be modeling, playing live music and dancing in celebration for the spirits and YOU June 19th at Strange Matter.
