About us
SF Sketchers is an umbrella group, listing sketching events throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Meetups are free and open to everyone, regardless of experience or skill.
We post for a wide range of groups, mostly following the UrbanSketchers.org model, but also including portrait parties, nature journaling and other kinds of sketching activities. In a typical meetup people get together briefly at the beginning, spread out to sketch in the area and meet up again at the end to share sketches and chat. There is a "no criticism" rule and people tend to be kind to each other.
We are sponsored by Arch Art Supplies, one of the vanishingly few independent art supply stores left in the Bay Area. They specialize in supplies that sketchers use, from old standards to cool new stuff from all over the world. Give them a visit!
Because our Meetup fees are paid by Arch, all events listed on the site are free. However we send out a quarterly newsletter listing classes and other fee-based events led by members.
Looking forward to sketching with you!
