Milwaukee County Zoo 10001 W Bluemound Road, Milwaukee WI

How to find them
"First we'll be meeting in the main building at the front entrance at 10am. Every two hours after that (Noon, 2pm and 4pm) we'll be meeting inside the Flamingo Cafe. Look for the folks with sketchbooks!"

Details

Join us for a fun day of sketching on Saturday, November 2nd from 10am to 4pm at the Milwaukee County Zoo! Admission to the Zoo will be free on the 2nd (parking fees still apply). This is a longer meetup than our usual time of 2 hours, since the zoo is so large and there's so much to see/draw. The meetup will be a total of six hours and broken up into three two-hour blocks of sketching.

Please do not feel obligated to attend the entire meetup! This is a long one, so if you can only make it for a couple of hours that's totally fine, we're happy to have you!

Sketching Block 1: 10:00am - 12:00pm
Sketching Block 2: 12:00pm - 2:00pm
Sketching Block 3: 2:00pm - 4:00pm
We will first be meeting up inside the main building at the front entrance at 10:00am. From there we'll spread out, sketch for two hours, then meet up as a group again at 12:00 inside the Flamingo Cafe (near the front entrance) to show what we've been working on. Feel free to get lunch while we're there! After that we'll spread out again until 2pm, where we'll meet at the Flamingo Cafe again for another round of show and tell. We'll have one more two-hour long drawing session after that until our final regrouping at 4pm, again at the Cafe.

Unless there's a complete monsoon outside, we will be meeting rain or shine! If the weather is crummy there are plenty of indoor spaces at the zoo to sketch.

If you have any questions or may arrive later in the day, feel free to message Bryan and let him know. Hope to see you there!

Where: Milwaukee County Zoo
When: Saturday, November 2nd from 10am - 4pm

Covered Bridge Art Studio Tour October 11-13, 2019

ref: https://cedarburgartistsguild.com/coveredbridgeartstudiotour.html

Your tour begins anywhere YOU want to visit. No tickets, No reservations.

New Hours :
Friday, Oct 11 4-8
Saturday AND Sunday : 10- 5


FREE Covered Bridge Art Studio Tour is a 37 year tradition for art enthusiasts. 54 artists from Mequon to West Bend will open their studio spaces to the public on the weekend of October 11-13, 2019 . Thirty-seven years ago, this event began as a studio and gallery tour in historic Cedarburg. Today, it is a unique opportunity for people to get an up close and personal look at some of Southeastern Wisconsin’s
finest artists and the spaces in which they work.

​Artists invite you into their creative spaces, whether it be a spare bedroom in a suburban ranch home, a remodeled chicken coop, an industrial garage, a restored 19th century barn or stone house, an 1850‘s stone woolen mill, a walk-out basement, or a tent . The rural drive between locations encompasses farm fields, pumpkin patches, Lake Michigan shoreline, rivers, picturesque small towns and even the last remaining
wooden Covered Bridge in Wisconsin. Most of the artists will be creating art during the event; all are happy to explain their artistic process and inspirations. This is your chance to purchase a unique piece of art directly from the artist along with its “ story of creation”.

Look for the red arrows
While on the tour, be sure to watch for the red arrows to direct you towards the open studios.

Pick up a map at Main Street Gallery inside the Cedarburg Cultural Center.
