Vancouver Sketchers..

I found somewhere interesting that will be warm and cozy.
How about the Bloedel Conservatory at Queen Elizabeth Park.

Tropical garden under the dome in Queen Elizabeth Park
The Conservatory is open daily, rain or shine 10:00am to 5:00pm. The triodetic dome is filled with exotic plants, tropical flowers, colourful Koi fish and over 100 free-flying birds of various species. Tropical plants include palms,bromeliads and the many other exotic plants from around the world.

I called the Conservatory and they are okay with a small group of us sketching in there with watercolour etc. We just need to make sure we don't let the birds or the fish get anything (toxic ..yuck). We are not to block the pathways. They have some benches, but you may want to bring your portable chair/stool.
Admission fee: is $5.00 for adults.
Location: Off 33rd Avenue between Cambie and Main Streets

So anyone interested- do we pick this? Saturday is almost here peoples.

If so I would suggest we meet at the entrance at 10:00am.

Hi Dave,
sorry for the late reply, I was really busy this week!

To be honest with you, I think the Bloedel Conservatory it's a GREAT idea! Warm, nice, and (for the students) cheap !
I will update my classmate and I will be back to you!

Thanks again for the update!

Hi Dave,

I've seen your message too late, I think I won't be on time to join :)

I wish you a good sketchcrawl.
