January 12th Sketch Date

Hi Urban Sketchers  - 

 

We're posting our sketch dates on the blog for those who use the blog to follow our escapes.

Also, January 19th is the 38th International Sketch Crawl and we have some very nice things planned...stay tuned.

 

This coming Saturday is likely to be the nicest day of the week , in terms of weather - and drawing opportunities.  We're going to meet  at the SkyRink, which is located at the Chelsea Piers.  The SkyRink has a heated gallery  that overlooks the skating area. We'll meet there at 10 AM.  There are loads of things to do at the Pier and if the weather is as warm as expected we can even draw some of the boats outdoors or the rollerbladers.

The Chelsea Piers extends for several blocks. The SkyRink is at Pier 61.  The best entry point to hit the SkyRink is to come in from West 21st Street at 11th Avenue. 

Best of all, when we're done with doing our own sketching the Chelsea Art Galleries are across the street with plenty of art to see as well as interesting restaurants where we can grab a bite.

Bring your favorite Art Supplies and we'll see you there.  In case you come late and we've changed locations, call my cell phone and we'll connect - 973-809-9128
