If you’ve not participated in a sketch walk before, we encourage you to jump in and give it a go! It’s a unique way to sketch a lot in one day, get to know a neighborhood and meet the best people, although they are sketchy🤣.
I (Marcia Schrotenboer) will be taking Amtrak to Union Station and from there the water taxi to Chinatown for the day!
