Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School

•WHAT IS DR. SKETCHY'S ANTI-ART SCHOOL?

Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art school is the world's premier alt.drawing movement. Artists draw glamorous underground performers in an atmosphere of boozy conviviality. Found in 2005 in a dive bar in Brooklyn, Dr. Sketchy's has now spread to over 100 cities around the world.

•WHO STARTED DR. SKETCHY'S?

Dr. Sketchy's was founded in 2005 by artists Molly Crabapple and A.V. Phibes. It's been run solely by Molly Crabapple (and her cadre of awesome helpers) since early '06. You can see more of Molly's art at www.mollycrabapple.com

•WHERE DID YOU COME UP WITH THE DR. SKETCHY'S ANTI-ART SCHOOL NAME? WHAT ARE ART MONKEYS?

Dr. Sketchy's is a corrupt Viennese doctor of our invention. Anti-Art School we chose because we were bad art students. "Art Monkey" was nicked from a late night we spent building steel weasels with New York's legendary Madagascar institute.

•WHO GOES TO DR. SKETCHY'S?

Lots of people. Fancy pants gallery artists, art students, dog walkers, jewelry designers, tattoo artists, illustrators and cubicle slaves. We have about 40% non-professional artists. Slightly more girls attend than boys.  - Dr. Sketchy's web site
