Excited to see your message. How about you pick a place and time? If I'm in town I'll be there.

In the past we've sketched several times in downtown Decatur and once on Emory's campus, though only 2 people showed up to the one on Emory's campus. It wasn't a good day anyway; the entrances to the campus were blocked for a Winship cancer run.

Hm, do you have any suggestions? I'm quite new to sketchcrawls and you seem like a veteran at these hehe!

I'm a student at Emory, but if the group is mostly centered elsewhere, I'm fine with switching it up. Do you know what the most successful places were in the past?

Awesome :>!!

I guess Oct. 10-12th I'll finalize the details here, but for now if everyone is good with crawling around Emory, that may be the tentative gathering spot!

I am new to the board and I would like to attend the sketch crawl. Can I get some details? I live near Emory so location is good for me.

Saffro, are you still there?
Erling or Kmcgah, feel free to jump in and propose a meeting place and time. Kmcgah, it's great to meet another Atlanta sketcher.
I plan to do something out of town on Saturday and don't expect to be able to make the sketchcrawl this time.

How about meeting at 12.30 on the Emory campus, in the courtyard between Cannon Chapel, Bishops Hall, and White Hall. It looks like this:

There is some good sketching around the quad.
You can recognize me as I'll most likely be wearing my trusty green painting hat, I'll be riding my bike there.
hope to see someone there
Cheers

I am a sketcher in SE Georgia, and live too far away to come on the 19th. Glad to see interest in sketching in the Atlanta area! Be sure to post your sketches in the Urban Sketching Facebook and Flickr groups.
