Summer Art Camp: Urban Sketching

Urban sketching is the art of capturing your personal vision of your immediate world, and the places you travel to. It is a narrative of everyday life from that cup of coffee that you drink in the morning to the streets that you walk by during the day. Urban sketching allows for a natural curiosity about the world, as well as developing your power of observation, to come to fruition. 

This session is part of a 3 part series this summer, called ‘Summer Art Camp.’ The staff at the Creativity Center is interested in providing art-based experiences that bring the people and the assets of our community together. We hope you enjoy this series!
