Sketching CoRo Coffee Room (Cafe Art Circle - East Bay)

Cafe sketching at CoRo Coffee Room in Berkeley. 📍 **1:30pm Meet inside.** Look for us with sketchbooks. 🎨 Bring your own art supplies. Roam freely. Sketch what you see. ☕ Pull up a chair anytime to draw with us and talk art. 📓 3:15pm. We wrap things up with a show & tell throwdown. This is organized by the **[Cafe Art Circle](https://www.zenbay.org/cafe_art_circle)** meetup under SF Sketchers. We explore coffee and tea shops around the Bay Area, using sketching as a way to experience the atmosphere of each place and its neighborhood. Established in 2015, CoRo (short for Bay Area CoRoasters) is a collaborative roasting space for more than 20 independent local coffee companies. From the Coffee Room, large windows look directly into the roastery, giving us a chance to sketch both the cafe and some of the craft magic happening behind the scenes. Message Jimmy or the Meetup chat if you need help finding the group.

Coffee Talk at Olivia Coffee + Flowers

If you haven’t been to Olivia Coffee + Flowers you’re in for a treat! They serve/sell beans exclusively from Gan Gyeul, a South Korean roaster. They even have the beans ground so you can get a better sense of what they taste like. As per usual, bring beans that you’re drinking that you’re enjoying as well as some bags if you’d like to trade beans with others (not required, just for fun). Looking forward to seeing everyone!
