Fall Weekend Away with Urban Sketchers

When the International Urban Sketchers Symposium ended many of the Canadian and east coast American sketchers wanted to schedule another meet up in the fall.  The goal is to sketch the colors of the fall in the beautiful lakeside city of Ithaca NY on Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes.  This site was chosen because it is a drivable distance from Toronto, Montreal, Kitchener-Waterloo (KW) and NYC (about 4 hours).

Mark Holmes of Montreal and Brenda Murray of  (KW) near Toronto have arranged for a wonderful sketching weekend in Ithaca NY. Hotel arrangements will be at the Trip Hotel with a great rate of $129. per night including a hot breakfast.  We will have 4 organized sketching sites around Ithaca, a communal dinner at the Moosewood Restaurant and lots of time to be with other sketchers on a beautiful fall weekend. 

If you are interested you can contact Raylie Dunkel at raylie@verizon.net or Brenda Murray brenda.murray@sympatico.ca.
