Looking for a chance to "salonify" your doodling in the style of the bohemian atmosphere of yore described in that Art History 101 course you slept through in college? Grab your sketchbook and implements of choice and head upstairs to Brillobox's second floor on the fourth Tuesday of the month. You'll find models styled in various themes, music, eats, well-drink specials -- and the sort of artistic camaraderie upon which terms like chiaroscuro, pointillism and cross-hatching are not lost.
The list is pretty extensive and covers everything: music, galleries, publishers, dance, dining, stores and the housing market. Check out the whole list.
