3 min read

Looking for a hen party activity that's fun, unique and guaranteed to get everyone laughing? Hen party life drawing has become one of the UK's favourite ways to celebrate, combining creativity, plenty of laughs and memories that last long after the wedding day.


At The Scarlet Pen, we've been delivering award-winning hen party life drawing experiences for over 10 years.

Founded by former art lecturer Charlotte Hughes, what started as one artist teaching a handful of life drawing classes has grown into The Scarlet Pen - a respected and well-established life drawing company, trusted by venues and groups throughout Yorkshire for fun, professional and unforgettable hen party experiences.


Whether you're staying at Norfolk House, a luxury holiday cottage, hotel or private house, we'll bring everything you need for an unforgettable experience.


What Is Hen Party Life Drawing?


If you've never tried life drawing before, don't worry – it's nothing like the traditional art classes you might remember from school.


Our sessions are designed for complete beginners and focus on bringing people together through creativity, laughter and a little bit of cheeky fun. Guided by one of our friendly tutors and a professional male life model, you'll take part in a series of relaxed drawing challenges, games and light-hearted activities that everyone can enjoy.


No artistic experience is needed – just a willingness to have a laugh!


What Happens During a Scarlet Pen Class?


From the moment we arrive, our aim is to make everyone feel relaxed and included.

Every class includes:


  • Professional tutor-led session

  • Friendly male life model

  • All art materials provided

  • Berets and comedy moustaches

  • A glass of fizz for every guest

  • Fun games and prizes

  • Artwork to take home as a keepsake


Whether your group prefers something tasteful or a little cheekier, we'll tailor the experience to suit your bride and make sure everyone feels comfortable.


Why Choose Life Drawing for Your Hen Party?


Hen party life drawing has become one of the UK's most popular activities because it's something everyone can enjoy.


It's the perfect way to break the ice, especially if not everyone in the group knows each other. Within minutes, the laughter starts, friendships form and everyone is cheering each other on.


Unlike many activities, every guest gets involved, regardless of age or artistic ability, making it a fantastic choice for mixed groups of bridesmaids, mums, sisters and friends.


We Bring the Experience to You


One of the best things about booking with The Scarlet Pen is that we travel to your venue.


We regularly visit holiday cottages, boutique hotels, private homes and luxury accommodation across Yorkshire and throughout the UK, transforming your living space into a fun and interactive life drawing studio.


If you're looking for the complete celebration, you can also book your class at Norfolk House, home of The Scarlet Hen, where life drawing can be combined with luxury accommodation, spa treatments, private chefs and other unforgettable hen party activities.


More Than Just Hen Parties


Although we're best known for our hen party life drawing experiences, our classes are also perfect for:


  • Birthday celebrations

  • Bridal showers

  • Girls' weekends away

  • Friends' reunions


Our goal has always been the same – to bring people together, help them switch off from everyday life and create moments they'll still be laughing about years later.
