Chicago Sketching Sessions Open Creative Circle
Details
The Chicago Sketching Sessions Open Creative Circle is a relaxed, informal space for anyone who wants to spend some dedicated time drawing. Whether you are a professional illustrator looking for a reason to practice, a hobbyist trying to build a consistent habit, or someone who just enjoys the company of others while working on a project, you are welcome here. We meet to share a quiet environment where we can focus on our own sketchbooks without any pressure or formal instruction.
Our gatherings are purely about showing up and putting pencil to paper. There is no specific theme or guided lesson, just a group of people enjoying the act of sketching in a communal setting. We usually spend the time working independently, though there is always room to chat, exchange tips, or share what you are currently working on during breaks. It is a simple, low-stakes way to connect with other creatives in the city.
If you have been looking for an excuse to get your sketchbook out or just want to find a regular community to draw with, I hope you will join us. Please RSVP if you plan on coming so I can get an idea of how many people to expect.
