It's been a long, hot summer here in the Junc, and Sketchyjunction has taken a break. We nixed the July session (due to historically low turn-out during the summer months) and we'll be restarting on Tuesday, August 27. We aren't exactly sure who the models are going to be, but Miss Phoebe has some great ideas... What we can confirm is that there will be an awesome line-up, great music, cheap drinks, and fun door prizes!
After a slow summer, our branch really kicked things back into high gear with our presentation of "Alice in Vampireland." This session featured our youngest-ever model (Fiona B., age 6) as a very convincing Alice, a sinister Mad Hatter, a vampiric Red Queen, and a crazy Cheshire Cat. We got great reviews from our artists, with praise for the models, the costumes, and sequence of poses (see pictures here).
Then we got some bad news that turned into good news... The American Legion in White River Junction, VT, where we had been meeting informed us that they would be shutting down. Just when it seemed like we had gotten our groove back! One of our regular attendees contacted me
We're still the same ol' Sketchyjunction Crew, but now, instead of being Dr. Sketchy of White River Junction, we're officially Dr. Sketchy of the Upper Valley! We are still down-gritty and we'll still be bringing you the same quality of crazy/cool models. And, for the time being, we will still be meeting at the American Legion in beautiful downtown White River Junction.
So what does the name change mean? We were just a little concerned that if we are no longer to meet at the Legion in the Junc, we would need to find another venue--and let's face it, there aren't that many places in White River that would be suitable for us--so if the new venue happened to be in Lebanon, West Lebanon, or Hanover... Well, we just thought it would be a little confusing for
Elvis rocks the house! Both performing and posing, you won't want to miss our top-notch Elvis impersonator. Whether you are an artist or not, this is going to be a rockin' show with cheap drinks, lots of fun door prizes, and a special cake to celebrate the 1st year anniversary of Dr. Sketchy of White River Junction!

So I've been slacking on keeping the website updated. My household was in an uproar over the holidays, we've had renovations going on, and I just haven't felt like myself lately. But here we are.
The last session, held in December, was "A Very Sketchy Christmas." We featured Yule C. LeBeouf as Santa and Diva J as Mrs. Claus. It was a great show and we had some really good music by Steven Neas and Alex Perry from the band Turnaround Sundown. The band will be releasing a new CD soon, and I hope they'll join us again.
The upcoming session (which is tonight, actually) is "Biker Babes" sponsored by Granite State Harley Davidson. We have two beautiful models, Yarrow and Jennifer, and their bikes. These lovely ladies will be holding a
