Dear all
The Drawing School was set up as a result of other life rooms closing. We have two life rooms in Shoreditch and 40 or so tutors such as John Lessore and Francis Hyland some of whom have a lot of knowledge/will have info about the history of life drawing.

Dear Alan
City and Guilds Art school in London still have a life drawing room, though they'd rather it be simply called a drawing studio. Diane Magee is the studio manager and she can be contacted through the Steve Garner's members list.
