Perfection is strictly forbidden, that may be hard for a Minerva woman but those are the rules ;)

Bad Art Night invites members to embrace creativity without pressure, skill or seriousness. The only rule: the art must be terrible.

Each participant will receive simple painting materials and a series of lighthearted prompts. Themes may include painting a portrait from memory after a glass of wine (or two!), recreating a classical statue disastrously, or inventing the most ridiculous composition imaginable.

At the end of the evening, the artworks are displayed and a few unofficial awards are given, including categories such as Most Chaotic, Most Horrendously Bad and the dreaded Surprisingly Good (which technically disqualifies you).

A relaxed, mischievous evening designed purely for laughter, creativity and letting go of perfection.
