Weekend spotlight: Art Is Social event at the Delaware Art Museum.

There is so much going on with this event that a short mention in my weekend listings doesn't do it justice.  Yes this is an attempt to bring younger people into the art museum's doors, but in my eyes, it's one of the most interesting, sophisticated things going on in Wilmington this season (burlesque model sketching session paired with cheap drinks?  Oh, this is going to be good).  In the museum's words:

Art Is Social.  Friday October 14th, 8-11pm.  $5.  Delaware Art Museum.

Mix up your social scene and head to the Delaware Art Museum for a night of free beer and wine tasting, salty snacks, experimental DJs, burlesque entertainment, and of course, art! Check out magazine illustrations by famed local artist and illustrator Howard Pyle and then try your hand at sketching some burlesque models clad in period costumes from Dr. Sketchy's Philadelphia! Never picked up a pad and pencil? Don’t worry, all amateurs are welcome (or if you just want to stand around and stare that’s okay too). Oh, did I mention that we'll have $1 - $4 drinks AND that we're within walking distance of Trolley Square?
