Sketch & Sip: My New York

Close your eyes and imagine the city – then put pencil to paper and capture your New York. Fine artist and educator Simon Levenson will lead a visualization exercise and then guide you through the process of making your vision of New York – good, bad, and beautiful – come to life on the page.

In this Sketch & Sip session, be inspired by a tour of the student artwork on view in the exhibition The City and the Young Imagination: Art from Studio in a School and enjoy drinks and snacks as you sketch in the Museum of the City of New York’s beautiful Marble Court. 

Sketch & Sip is open to adults ages 21 years & up, of all artistic abilities. Fee includes two drinks (wine, beer, soda, and juice will be served) and drawing materials for use during class time. 

Advance registration is required. Space limited to 25 participants per class.
