About us
Draw Y'all is where sketchers of all skill levels meet and sketch at different locations throughout the Triangle. We draw people, buildings, portraits, figures, landscapes, botanicals, and anything we damn well please. The only thing you need to bring is your pencils, sketch pad, and a friend, if you like. If you feel like you can't draw...come try anyway! Our events are open to all people, all levels. We also post a lot of art events run by other places (such as the Nasher Museum) each month, so check out our calendar.

Durham Plein Air/Urban Sketching at CCB Plaza
CCB Plaza, 201 N Corcoran St, Durham, NC, USGrab your travel-friendly painting supplies and/or sketchbook and join us for some art outdoors. All levels and types welcome!
This month we're meeting at CCB Plaza. It's the home of Major The Bull, a 10-foot tall bronze sculpture and features the Empire State Building's shorter twin. The event officially starts at 10am, but come whenever you like and start sketching whatever inspires you (some of us arrive closer to 9am).
We'll meet at the end for the throwdown at 11:45am in the plaza.
Several parking garages are nearby as well as street parking.
Event will be canceled in case of poor weather. I will send an email update from Meetup if this happens, so RSVP here to get the updates (will only send to people who replied yes).
Tips
- Wear comfortable clothing for the weather and supportive shoes for walking on uneven terrain.
- Bring a hat, sunscreen, and bug spray.
- Bring water and any other beverages or snacks you may want.
- If you don't have an easel or don't prefer standing, bring a folding chair/stool or picnic blanket.
- Make sure you're able to carry your supplies for short to medium distances, depending on your preferred painting location.
- Be aware of your surroundings and the weather. Watch out for uneven terrain and signs of heat exhaustion. Hike at your own risk. Stay hydrated.
- Leave the area as you found it or better. Bring any trash out with you.
