SATURDAY: Sketch Philadelphia

Saturday, June 8th, 2019

WELCOME to the DISCOVERY of PHILADELPHIA

It's a far off place discovered by Benjamin Franklin and Rocky Balboa.  A land of artists, and historical buildings.  A place so close it seems familiar and so different it's almost another country.  Welcome to the wilds of Philadelphia, where we will be sketching this Saturday.

Our nearest cousins to the south.  This is a first-ever experiment, a bold leap for Urban Sketchers.  We'll be spending the day sketching the city of brotherly love with our friends and fellow artists  - Philadelphia Urban Sketchers (https://www.facebook.com/groups/UrbanSketchersPhiladelphia/).  This entire day has been planned by them for our sketching enjoyment.

If you're considering going it's going to be a full day. We're taking an 8 AM Greyhound bus at the NYC Port Authority and traveling to Philadelphia.  We'll be spending the day there including lunch and dinner together with P-USk.  We'll returning to NYC on the 7 PM bus.  Most people have purchased bus tickets in advance.

If you're driving down, meet us at the Philadelphia bus terminal at 10 AM  We'll be spending the entire day within a few blocks of the terminal, so it's a convenient spot.  Our Philadelphia hosts have prepared a map and an interesting itinerary, included below.

One important details, you will need cash to pay for dinner.  Credit cards will not be possible.
