Weekday Sketchers at the Plaza in front of the Plaza Tues
Some facts you might not know about the plaza in front of the Plaza:
- It is called Grand Army Plaza
- The fountain is called the Pulitzer Fountain after Joseph Pulitzer who left $50K in his will to have it built.
- There is an equestrian statue dedicated to General Willian Tecumseh Sherman
- And.....there is now a giant tilted head sitting in the middle of it!
Join us this week to capture all of this including beautiful scenes of the Plaza with the greenery of the trees in from of it. After lunch we can wander into Central Park to capture yet another bridge in Central Park: the Capstow Bridge over The Pond. (Might even find that beautiful Asian Duck that go so much PR last year?!)
Extra credit given for anyone who can name the statue on top of the Pulitzer Fountain!
