Save the eventbrite fee by sending $40 to @quimbysbookstore with “Sketch Book” in the note, or dm @lmn_wedge_art on Instagram to reserve a spot and pay at Quimby’s register. See below for a link.
Guests begin at 6pm by stopping at Quimby’s for a free zine of their choosing (of $15 value or less).
Around 6:30, the group will head a few doors down to the Flatiron Arts Building to LMN Wedge Studio and Gallery.
This is an opportunity to read a book or other material of your choosing, practice sketching the people and setting from observation, or simply journal and/or mark-make in your sketchbook within a social, supportive setting*. Bring your own reading and/or sketchbook materials.
At LMN Wedge, we'll have some good instrumental tunes on, tea and water on offer, and the eclectic and comfy surroundings. We will savor a good stretch of semi-focused reading and/or sketching, then a shorter time near the close of our session for round-robin sharing.
Complimentary tea and a Quimby’s zine (of ? $15 value) are included with the $40 admission. BYOB, if you have a taste for adult beverage.
(*Also, if you like doing a little knitting, or something else like that, no one will raise an eyebrow ;-)
