Upcoming sketching meetups

Queens Wharf meetup

We'll be having another sketching meetup on Saturday 28th September 2013.

Meet at 2pm at Queens Wharf, near Fergs Kayaks (where all the kayaks are stacked).

We'll sketch around Queens Wharf if it is sunny, or in one of the adjacent museums such as the Museum of Wellington City and the Sea if it is raining. 

You are welcome to just turn up and find us, but it is best to rsvp so that we can swap mobile numbers and you can txt us if you can't find us, and we can txt you to let you know where we are. Rsvp to Wellington dot Sketchers at gmail dot com. 

Worldwide Sketchcrawl #41

Also on the cards soon is the 41st Worldwide Sketchcrawl, on Saturday 19th October 2013. This is an international event, held 3 times a year, where sketchers and sketching groups all over the world sketch their cities on the same day. The event is set up by Enrico Casarosa on the website www.Sketchcrawl.com. Our group, Wellington Sketchers, will be doing it, although you do not need to be a part of our group, or to sketch with us, to join in the Worldwide Sketchcrawl. Wellingtonians are welcome to put their sketches up on the Wellington thread, even if you did not come sketching with us. 

So, where will we go sketching for the Worldwide Sketchcrawl? Do you have any favourite areas that you want to sketch in? It needs to be somewhere accessible by public transport. So far we have the following suggestions made: Aro Valley, Oriental Parade, Thorndon & Parliament Lawn, or Courtney Place. We have thought about catching a bus together to sketch different parts of the city, although historically people tend to drop in on the Sketchcrawl at different times, and it may be tricky to catch up with the group. But, what do people think? We need to decide these things by the last day of September, so that I can get some posters out in early October. Leave a comment on this post, or email Wellington dot Sketchers at gmail dot com with your thoughts.
