(Attached is a post from Mark Liebowitz, one of the organizers of the NYC Urban Sketchers about our location for the Sketchcrawl on Saturday, Nov 11th. All Sketchers are invited to join us.)
At least 110 Urban Sketcher Regional Chapters, groups like ours from all over the world will be participating. It’s a celebration - Ten Years of Urban Sketching together!
The NYC Urban Sketchers are going to be sketching in one of NYC’s most iconic locations - Times Square. You are requested to upload your artwork as it’s being created using the hashtag #nycurbansketchers. If you’re new to social media there will be people there to help. Katie Woodward, our Manager of Social Media will be gathering our sketches and adding them to our NYC USk Instagram Account.
During the 24 hour sketchcrawl Katie’s International counterparts will be scanning all the sites, all over the world and uploading everyone’s drawings to one central location - the International Instagram account setup for this event: #USkGlobal24hrSketchwalk.
We’ve never tried anything like this - it should be great.
Times Square is, of course, an amazing sketching location. It’s got everything, people, lights, buildings, ... you could sketch till your hand ached and still not capture even a fraction of what’s happening.
DETAILS
When: This Saturday, November 11, 2017 starting at 12:00 PM - noon. We will be sketching together until 4:30
Where: Times Square. We will meet in Duffy Square - the northern triangle located between 45th and 47th Streets, Broadway and Seventh Avenue. It’s easily recognized by the statue of Father Duffy and the TKTS reduced-price theater red stairs and ticket booth located there. We’ll meet behind the statue.
Philosophy: As Urban Sketchers we are recording the changing world around us. It’s easy to forget how quickly it’s gone.
Show and Tell: Since we’re starting later than usual and ending later than usual the Show and Tell will be shorter. At 4:30 we’ll go to the restaurant/bar area of the Marriott Hotel where we will share our drawings, good stories and a snack, beer or wine if you're so inclined.
Advice and Sketching Strategies:
- Definitely bring a stool or chair if you have one.
- Definitely dress warmly, you will be happy you did. Consider overdressing - Warmth!!!
- Clean bathrooms and a chance to warm-up are available in the Marriott Hotel 1535 Broadway.
- Upload your work to our Facebook Page as you complete each piece. Be sure to include the hashtag #nycUrbanSketchers so we can find your work.
