Weekday Sketchers at NY Historical Society 

So mush to see, so little time!



New-York Historical Society - Wikipedia




Join us this week as we explore the New York Historical Society: founded in 1804 by some of the country's founding fathers to preserve the history of this city.   Located just south of the American Museum of Natural History, this building houses 400 years of New York City history while presenting it in the most contemporary fashion.  Come see the current exhibits ( I'll Have What She's Having: the Jewish Deli), or explore the artifacts collected over the years (Object That Tell Stories), or capture the color and fascination of the Tiffany glass. No matter what catches your eye there's plenty to see and lots to sketch.
