Sketchbook: V&A Sculpture Room

Lets sketch in the sculpture room at the V&A South Kensington I love this set of rooms, there's tonnes of amazing sculptures here. Sculptures act as such effective life drawing models cus they don't move! If anyone wishes to sketch any other part of the museum they are of course welcome to. We will meet outside the main entrance on Cromwell Road at 11am, I'll wait for about 15 minutes and then we will head in to the sculpture room together. Afterwards we can then meet back there at 1pm and maybe sit in the courtyard and compare drawings! Nearest Tube Stop: South Kensington What Three Words: ///shorts.cards.legs Completely free of charge, no need to sign up, bring a friend. Feel free to drop in for the whole two hours or just short while if you'd prefer. Look for the tall ginger fella with a sketchbook as an indicator of the meetup spot, but feel free to roam as far and wide as you like and sketch anything you damn well please! Please bring your own sketchbooks and pens/pencils. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- About Sketchbook London Every week we will choose a location around the magnificent city of London and draw people, buildings, pigeons, bins, anything you want....

Zero pressure to interact, network, impress in any way, this is just a way to get out and about and appreciate the joy of urban sketching and all the weird and wonderful creatures that inhabit this thriving metropolis.

“Saatchi Gallery → Battersea | Saturday Social, Riverside & Drinks

Fancy getting out of the house and meeting some new people this Saturday? Join us for a relaxed afternoon starting in Chelsea and finishing at Battersea Power Station. We'll meet at Saatchi Gallery and have a look around the free Art Mail exhibition. You definitely don't need to be an art expert — it's just a fun place to start the afternoon and gives us something to explore while everyone gets to know each other. Afterwards we'll head through Chelsea, cross the river and make our way to Battersea Power Station, where we'll finish with coffee, food or a drink. This is a social rather than a serious walking event. The idea is simply to spend a Saturday afternoon somewhere interesting, have some good conversations and hopefully meet people you'd like to see again. Coming alone? Absolutely fine — most people at London Wanderers events do. I'll make introductions when you arrive so you won't be left standing around wondering who to talk to. Saturday 10 October 2pm Meet outside Saatchi Gallery Nearest Tube: Sloane Square Free to join — just buy your own food or drinks. Come along for the whole afternoon or stay on with us at Battersea afterwards.
