THE SKETCHING GROUP IS TAKING A BREAK BUT WE HOPE TO START RUNNING SOME SESSIONS AGAIN IN SPRING 2023.
Love to draw? Want to draw more? Join us for sketching adventures around Buxton - what ever the weather!
Buxton is a beautiful town, with plenty of notable and eye-catching buildings. The Buxton Sketching Group aims to meet around once a month for a couple of hours or so at a particular location in Buxton. We sketch in and around that area, then meet up again at the gallery and show (if you want to) the work that you’ve produced.
Bring your favourite sketching materials and sketchbook; bring snacks to keep you going and please dress for the weather! You can return to the the galley at any time and buy coffee, tea, hot chocolate, herb teas and biscuits.
The group welcomes beginners and experienced artists alike. It’s an open, encouraging group that will include plenty of people who will help you learn. What’s more, it’s free to take part. We plan to make this a regular event.
