Drawing Space
a Public Open Space Project
55 Second Street, San Francisco, CA
(a lunchtime escape for downtown doodleful worker bees)
WHAT IS IT ABOUT:
Hanging out with other folks in as you draw and sketch your lunch away.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- Pen, pencil or drawing instrument
- Paper (I will have extras on hand)
- BYOL = Bring Your Own Lunch
- Any old item to draw as a still life
This will be a bi-weekly event, every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month. You can invite yourself below.
Questions? please email me at acotter [at] nonsensical.com
See photos above for what the building and space looks like. The "open space" is in the little building behind the main building (see 4th picture above) on Stevenson alley (you can enter on 2nd street or the alley)
If you want to know more about public spaces in San Francisco, look at the Rebar group's COMMONspace project.
They have info about each space. Here's the details about 55 Second Street.
Its going well. I have my regulars, and the occasionals. The event was mentioned at a syposium on public space last week too (by one of the rebar folk).

The weather is getting nice again, where we might start wandering to outside venues.

Thanks Jenifer! I'd be willing to do a 2nd and 4th week on another day of the week.

Dang it, Adrian! This is SUCH a great idea. And even though I'm barely employed, I teach on T/Th from 1:30 to 3:30. Sigh. With your permission, I'll post about it on my blog, in hopes to draw more, uh, drawers, in...

Today we had a fine outdoor session, as some corporate event had taken over the regular space.

We had a photographer (no pictures) show up today. Alas we were not vast today, despite the upcoming and squidlist posts. Anyone recommend any artists lists?
