Since 2005, Dr. Sketchy's has been the name in alternative drawing. From illegal flashmobs to the Museum of Modern Art, Dr. Sketchy's has brought artists a rule-breaking cocktail of dames, drinking and drawing. Dr. Sketchy's branches draw in over a hundred cities around the globe, from Akron to Zagreb. Whether you're an artstar or a scribbling newbie, Dr. Sketchy's is the perfect place to get your fill of life-drawing
Dr. Sketchy's is the brainchild of artist Molly Crabapple
This website is the official site for all licensed Dr. Sketchy's branches. If you hear of a branch, but they do not have a profile on this site, be warned that they will not provide our authentic Sketchy's experience. Check our Branches page for your local branch!
I've spent the last 11 days in a Dr. Sketchy's North Wales whirl... and how lovely its been. Spoken with potential customers, possible branch photographers, lovely art monkeys and wonderful sponsors and even managed a stop over in the London Branch. We have these lovely new posters and flyers courtesy of local Welsh printers Gwasg Helygain. For our Hellish first Sketchy we have gathered some fair goodies too including this beautiful "Love Bites" necklace, complete with crystallized blood droplets...
But you gotta be there to win it!

A few years ago, Dr. Sketchy's and Go Numb films co-produced a movie. Now, it's done and making the rounds of festivals! It's an epic tribute to Dr. Sketchy's early days, when we ran solely on caffeine and fast talking. If you're in a city where it's playing, go see it!

I must have posted the LAZERBITCH music video for "Coquette" in twenty places, and made at least six or seven people at the door watch it on my iPhone while I was doing door stuff, but here it is one last time. Watch the entire video, and you'll even see the Windup Space at the end.
