Tick this unique experience off your bucket list and step into the spotlight as a neon life model! Strip down (to whatever you're comfortable with), get painted in glowing UV colours, and pose under vibrant lights for a fun and supportive audience.

Event Details:

The session is 2 hours long, including a break halfway through to relax.

There will be a selection of poses, with the longest lasting 10 minutes. You’ll be guided with advice on how to approach each pose and time frame.

Arrival time is one hour before the life drawing begins, giving you time to settle in, get painted, and prepare.

After the session, enjoy a 1-hour social chill-out to connect with other participants and reflect on your experience.

Important Rules and Advice:

You are not obligated to pose for the class—this experience is entirely for you. Every session includes a professional nude model who will pose for the class, ensuring there’s always a subject to draw.

You do not need to be fully nude—pose in whatever makes you feel comfortable.

You don’t have to do every pose! Feel free to skip one, draw instead, or even just participate for half the class—your level of involvement is completely up to you.

Bring a robe for before and after the session to stay warm and relaxed.

The neon paint used is skin-friendly face paint designed for comfort and safety, and it washes off easily with water.

No lewd or inappropriate behavior is allowed; anyone engaging in such actions will be asked to leave.

No photography is permitted during the event to ensure privacy and respect for all participants. If you'd like photos of your poses, an allocated area will be available after the session. You can even book a professional photographer for a 15-minute slot (£50).

You are welcome to have a drink at the event, but if you appear too intoxicated, you will not be allowed to pose. Please remain respectful of the space and others around you.

There are no showers available at the venue, so please bring face wipes to clean off the paint and wear old clothes to leave in comfort.

Feel free to bring light-up or glowing accessories to enhance your look and express yourself—it’s all about showcasing your unique style!

This is an 18+ event. Attendees who appear under 25 may be required to provide ID to confirm their age.

Embrace your bold side and let your inner light shine in this glowing, one-of-a-kind experience!

Originating from the creative mind of Jylle Navarro, once a fashion designer, now a visionary artist, Neon Naked finds its roots in experimental knitwear, a deep exploration of colours, and innovative creative direction. Jylle's artistic journey progressed as she completed her MA in Art and Science at Central Saint Martins. Here, she specialized in light-reactive materials, immersive installations, and conceptual performances, solidifying Neon Naked's position as a unique and captivating artistic venture.
