Dudes, isn't it frustrating when you're macking on some foxy lady and then suddenly the conversation turns to art. And you're like, uh, The Gates were okay, but I wasn't feeling that giant flower puppy. Help is on the way! Instead of pounding Corona in a sombrero on Cinco de Mayo, one Brooke Mellen, who does the Dating is an Art blog and holds an MFA in arts administration, will teach you the basics on how to meet artsy women. Note that we're not just talking about artists, but artsy ladies—a term which encompasses a much broader field of candidates; from the quirky, bespectacled young dilettantes; to the utterly gorgeous gallery assistants; to the cougar gallery owners. For just $75, Mellen will teach you where "to meet quality, artsy women," how to "behave" at an arts event, and "where to buy affordable art for your apartment that appeals to women." The one hour tutorial will be followed by an hour of speed dating with actual artsy women! And it's all over by 9 p.m., so if you strike out there's still time to hit Coyote Ugly for Cuervo shots. Details.





Ugh, don't bother. Artsy chicks are always the looniest, not worth the long term hassle.
Ahhh... but the looniest are the best in bed.
Long term? Not really the point.
A good long term plan would be to find yourself a survivalist culture chick.
Does it tell you how to earn enough money to support them in their pointless and low-paying career?
"Note that we're not just talking about artists, but artsy ladies—a term which encompasses a much broader field of candidates; from the quirky, bespectacled young dilettantes; to the utterly gorgeous gallery assistants; to the cougar gallery owners."
If you have to support them, you're choosing the wrong ones.
I hold an MFA, live very comfortably in Manhattan (and no, I don't have a trust fund), I pay for dates, and work my ass off to sell as many paintings as I have. Low paying career? Not if you're doing it right. I'm just fine, thank you.
Don't worry about supporting a pointless career. We don't date philistines.
Or you could just text them pictures of your dick.
JDS consistently picks the best images for his articles. well played.
A good reminder: The Dude would never show up for this, or any, dating class.
The dude abides.
"my work has been commended as being strongly vaginal"
two words:
"aaah. Bach"
Forget the 'artsy woman'.
We wanna learn how to identify & pick-up on the ones that put-out more easily.
