July 26 Sketchcrawl - SE Hawthorne Plaza again

NOTE:  This is slightly off-schedule, on the fourth Saturday of July, rather than our usual third Saturday.

We collectively decided to return to SE 37th and Hawthorne, trying for a day without rain, so we don't have to hide in coffee shops or huddle under shop awnings and will have a chance to sketch more of the surroundings.

Tov Coffee at 3639 SE Hawthorne opens early on Saturday for your caffeine fix, and Harder Day Coffee at 3757 SE Hawthorne has even more baked goods and breakfast burritos.

  • 10:00 AM: Meet in the pedestrian plaza for introductions
  • Noon: Meet back at the same location for an optional sketchbook throwdown

SE Hawthorne Plaza

Well, I didn't expect the first day of summer to be quite so wet and cold.  Thanks to all who braved the elements to meet this morning.




(By popular consensus, we decided to come back to the same spot in July, in hopes of getting better weather.  I'll send out an official announcement later.)
