ART ATTACK FOR GROWN UPS
Double art on a Thursday afternoon — it was either the standout part of your school week, or if you're anything like us, you drew consolatory looks even from your own stick people. Whichever camp you belonged to, you’ve got a chance to reinvent your relationship with the great white canvas and spend an evening with a screentime count of zero through an ArtNight workshop. Master a city skyline at the JQ’s Rebel Chicken on August 14 from 7pm, or maybe go full Warhol with a Pop art evening (Aug 20) at a secret location in the city. Though the sessions are said to be suitable for hobbying artists, no skill is necessary — a legit artist will guide you towards your masterpiece. And liquid courage is available throughout class, which is limited to 24 budding Botticellis. Tickets are £34.

COMEDY PICK:
MIKE WILMOT
It tells you everything you need to know about Mike Wilmot’s standing on the comedy circuit that the grizzled Canadian veteran goes by the affectionate soubriquet of Uncle Mike. Yes, really. This warm, avuncular character is the sort of person you’re always delighted to see in a green room, because it means you can sit back, relax and just listen to the man talk. Anecdotes, life advice and — if you ask — comedy advice are all dispensed in equal measure. Yet it’s on stage where the great man is truly in his element. Think comedy has got a little too PC? Wilmot is living proof that it absolutely has not. Profane, profound and, frankly, absolutely filthy, you need to get some Wilmot into your life as part of a mixed bill at The Glee. On Sept 6, tickets are 17.75.
