If Trivia Night Is Losing Steam, the Next Bar Trend May Be: Nude Drawing

Bar trivia nights were a lot of fun before everyone had a smartphone in their pocket. So if you’re looking for a hot new bar trend, this could be it.

The “Washington Post” says the “hippest new event” popping up on the nightlife scene is:  NUDE DRAWING NIGHTS.  (Yeah, like Jack drawing Rose in “Titanic”, just at a bar.)

One event in Washington, D.C. is called “Kink N’ Draw.” Another is “Naked Friends.” But it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of anything like it, since “the bar figure drawing scene is fairly new.”

It’s not a class or anything, and it’s not pretentious.

People just shell out a few bucks to draw live, naked models at a bar, while sipping on a drink.  That’s it, no commitment or experience necessary.

The vibe is obviously a little less raucous than a trivia event or karaoke, but people who have done it say the idea of an event like this isn’t much different.

The hosts may even suggest different “challenges” like, “This round, draw only with your nondominant hand.”  Or, “for two minutes, keep your pencil moving on the page.”

To be clear:  The models are part of the event.  So you don’t choose someone in your group to be the model.  Just figured that was worth clarifying.  (???)
