December Sketch Group at Dixon Gallery and Gardens

Next sketch group Saturday, December 2 Dixon Gallery and Gardens (4339 Park Ave, Memphis, TN 38117) Meet inside at 10:00 AM. Only pencil and colored pencil can be used to sketch the interior! The weather might be nice enough to sketch in the gardens, too.
The Isabelle de Borchgrave exhibit Fashioning Art from Paper will be on display - historic fashions recreated using paper, which sounds really fun to sketch (see image below from the Dixon). And Justin Bowles' exhibit Boukay will be in the Wurtzburger Gallery.

Time*: 10:00 AM (*If you are an early bird, please plan on meeting at City and State at 9:00 AM - our time slot for sharing on Instagram for the Global Sketchwalk is 10:15 AM, so I want to make sure to get some good pictures before that time.)

About: From urbansketchers.org: "On Saturday 11th November 2017, USk chapters from around the globe will hold sketchwalks in their cities to celebrate 10yrs of Urban Sketchers. Using GMT time, we will follow the sketchwalks on the USk Instagram account starting with the first chapter to see daylight (Auckland, New Zealand) to the last chapter to see the sunset (O’ahu, USA)."

Our Group: Memphis Urban Sketchers will participate with a sketchwalk on Broad Avenue, and we will share pictures and videos on the official USk Instagram account as a part of the 10th Anniversary celebration with the hashtag #USkGlobal24hrSketchwalk
