Drinking and drawing—a simple concept, and one that has proffered the gift of art to those who never thought their hand could hold a paintbrush better than their pet parrot. Think BYOB restaurant, but instead of surly servers and flank o’ filet, artists teach proper brushstrokes for a Van Gogh replica or perhaps a nude man’s belly button whilst students sip on their preferred Spanish Tempranillo. The public-event calendar offers a different theme seven days a week, and their private party option can make it personal. The only downside is it won’t be only-in-Chicago for long: they plan on franchising the concept in other states.
