SUNDAY: Sketching Under the Palms or By the Boats


We will be sketching in-person this Sunday.  

We’ll be sketching at the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place, the building complex across the highway from the World Trade Center.  If it's raining which is possible, you can reach the area dry and happy walking through through the gorgeous concourse that brings you from the Fulton Street subway complex, under the World Trade Center,  through the Oculus and brings you riverside at the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place.

We'll meet on the ground floor in the large room by the windows. We'll be meeting in the palm tree area between the two escalators that take you to the food court and the bathroom.  

If the weather cooperates we’ll have gorgeous boats, the NYC skyline, the Hudson River and views of NJ for your sketching pleasure.  Indoors our outdoors - it should be a good day
