About us
This is a casual, low-pressure space for anyone who enjoys sketching and wants to get out of the house to do it. We meet once a week at a local pub to fill our sketchbooks, share a drink, and enjoy some quiet company. Whether you are an experienced artist or someone who just doodles in the margins of notebooks, you are welcome to pull up a chair and join us.
There is no formal instruction or agenda here. The goal is simply to make time for creativity in our busy schedules and meet a few like-minded neighbors in the process. We usually spend a couple of hours drawing, chatting about art supplies, or just winding down after work. If you have been looking for a reason to pick up your pencil more often, we would love to have you join us for a session.
