Welcome


The Art Students Guild of Brevard is a unique gem in the heart of Historic Downtown Melbourne, Florida. Join us for open studio live model sessions in a rustic loft environment.

The Guild, founded in 1961 by Eliot McMurrough, moved to its present location in 1962. Our spacious loft on the third floor of 909 E. New Haven Avenue is called home by our member artists, and we welcome visitors during our regularly scheduled open studio sessions. Your first visit to draw with us is free. 

The Art Students Guild of Brevard is dedicated to keeping portraiture and plein air artistry alive. Open Studio Sessions with live models, Plein Air meetups, and special Instructor-led Workshops are mainstays of our tradition.

Location:  909 E. New Haven Avenue, Suite 301, Melbourne, Florida 32901 (Third floor Melbourne Arcade; sorry, no elevator)
