Lunch Ladies. You heard me right. Lunch Ladies. They are a conglomeration of performers, artists, professionals, and just a bunch of wacky hot chicks who like to give mad props to Lunch Ladies.

The details: When: August 18th from 5:00pm - 8:00pm (NOTE: The times have moved up an hour.) You can reserve a table for $15 or a chair for $10. Drop an email to MissD@austinsketchy.com to get on the list. Also, I hate to mention it, but we are going to have to ask y’all not to take photographs at the Dr. Sketchy’s. Our models are posing for life drawing. If you want to arrange for a photography session you should talk to them directly. Looking forward to it, and see y’all on the 18th! PS - There are a lot of updates on our flickr group. Check ‘em out!

There are a number of Austin Dr. Sketchy artists with art openings in the next few days/weeks. Kevin Peake is opening a show this Wednesday at Amys Ice Cream on 6th from 3:30-6:30 with free ice cream. It is called Robots n’ Hot Rods, so you can’t miss it. Michael Schliefke is hosting “Taking Life Seriously” a three man show in the prestigious Bolm Studios along with Ian Shults and Dan Morrison. More details at the Taking Life Seriously website. He also has paintings up in the original Kerby Lane through the Month of July. Gallery Lombardi is hosting the Radical Nautical show with an opening on August 2nd. It features many Dr. Sketchy’s artists including Jason Chalker, Kristin Hogan and yours truly. Also a heads up, we are still on for the 21st and our models will be lovely ladies from the Jigglewatts burlesque troupe. As soon as we have the location locked down we will make a more formal announcement. In celebration of Bastille Day, the theme will be, well, let’s just say French. As a warm up I’ll be showing Scopitones at the Rio Rita on July 14th if you want to hang out and watch some awesome 60s risque French music videos.
