SATURDAY: Sketch the Compromise

 


The dilemma when posting sketching events is that weather forecasts are not always reliable.  Saturday looked great, until it didn’t.  The current best guess for our sketch date says it’ll rain, … but honestly, will it?


Our best solution is to pick a spot that has a solid indoor solution, but also has great outdoor views if the weather cooperates.  


Brookfield Place is that place, with its incomparable views of the Hudson River and the Jersey .  It also has a ferry service nearby and it’s a good place to dock your yacht.  Lots to draw from inside where it’s dry, or outside where the sun will hopefully be shining.  There are also loads of food choices and clean bathrooms.


Even if it’s raining, we’ll turn this into a sketchable day.



DETAILS:


WHEN:  We’ll meet at 10 AM, on Saturday, May 20, 2023.    Sleeping late?  Come anyway - we'll be there.
