Weekday Sketchers Go HOT

(Go to Hot Houses that is)



Winter is here but Urban Sketchers are HOT.  This week we go indoors to the Hot Houses at the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. With several different environments from desert to tropical we should be busy for hours.  Get your green paint out of winter storage and come along!  

The prediction is for a temps in the high 40's, allowing for some outdoor sketching for the hale and hearty among us. There is a cafe in the Atrium for lunch or bring your own.  Bring a stool. Admission is free durning weekdays in the winter.
