The Brew House, Barely Brunch. Every fourth Saturday of the month, for several years, a group of people, of all ages, from all walks of life, have been coming together to work from the figure. Using various techniques and methods, participants hone their skills, capture the essence of the human form, relax, and enjoy themselves. They also look forward to the break when they can have a cup of coffee, a glass of juice, some refreshments, and socialize with the other people present that day. There’s often a sharing experience where the artists voice their mutual appreciation of the work. To inquire by phone: 412-969-7689.
