About us

I started this group because I believe that learning to draw is much more enjoyable when you are doing it alongside others who are also just starting out. Whether you have not picked up a pencil since grade school or you have been doodling in the margins of your notebooks for years, this is a space to practice without any pressure to be perfect. The goal here is simply to get together, share a few hours of quiet focus, and pick up some new skills through observation and trial and error.

We meet in various spots around the city to practice sketching from life, whether that means capturing the architecture of a local park or the movement of people in a coffee shop. There are no critiques or formal lessons here, just a friendly group of people working on their own sketchbooks and enjoying the company of fellow beginners. If you are looking for a low-key way to make art a consistent habit and meet some new people, I hope you will come join us for our next session.
