FRIDAY, February 14, 2025: Westchester Sketchers at the Bronxville Public Library

 

Come join the Westchester Division of the NYC Urban Sketchers for a fun and supportive day of sketching in the beautiful setting of the Bronxville Public Library. Draw inspiration from books, paintings, art objects and indoor scenery. This this event is meant to be an opportunity for people to relax, create art and make new friends.

The Library is justly proud of its fine art collection, which includes two small Hudson River paintings. Most of the oils and prints in the collections were executed between about 1890 and 1930, and all are by American artists. They represent works by Bronxville painters and sculptors, who began to move to the Village in the late 1890s, and their colleagues, who were fellow National Academicians or affiliated with the same summer art colonies (Old Lyme, for example).
