Sketching Meetup: Paekakariki

We are having an impromptu sketching meetup on Sunday at Paekakariki on the Kapiti Coast. Why? A few free hours suddenly popped up on the weekend, and why not spend them somewhere terrific sketching? All sketchers welcome: newcomers and new sketchers too. 


We will be meeting on Sunday, 30th June, around 2pm in Paekakariki, on the Main Street, probably in or near the Perching Parrot cafe. If that is full, we might try the other cafe a couple of doors to the left. Wherever we are, we will be easy to spot, as we will have our sketchbooks out. Paekakariki has a small main street, but I love the buildings, the wooden houses, the secondhand bookstore, the gallery, the old church, and the railway museum (which closes at 3pm). The station is right next to the main street, for those coming by train. You are welcome to just turn up, but if you rsvp (email address below), we can keep an eye out for you and give you a mobile number to txt if you have any trouble finding the group. 


Wet weather arrangements: There are plenty of undercover areas to sketch in. However, if it the weather is really atrocious, pouring down, or really windy, we might cancel and wait for a better day. We'll let everyone who has rsvped know if that is the case.

Want to suggest an event, location, day, or time for one of our next sketching meetups? Email us on wellington.sketchers at gmail.com.
