Urban Sketchers Cincinnati

We celebrate Cincinnati, a beautiful city with amazing architecture, through sketching.

If you haven’t made it down to the Stay and Wonder Gallery, check out their exhibition here!

:::Manifesto:::

We draw on location, indoors or out, capturing what we see from direct observation.
Our drawings tell the story of our surroundings, the places we live and where we travel.
Our drawings are a record of time and place.
We are truthful to the scenes we witness.
We use any kind of media and cherish our individual styles.
We support each other and draw together.
We share our drawings online.
We show the world, one drawing at a time

Urban Sketchers is a global community of artists that practice drawing on location in cities, towns and villages they live in or travel to. The Urban Sketchers movement was started on Flickr in 2007 by Seattle journalist Gabriel Campanario. In 2009 Campanario established Urban Sketchers as a nonprofit organization that grew nationally, then internationally.

Cincinnati became an official chapter in 2017 and is run by Amy Bogard, Jeb Brack, Robin Ewers Carnes, and Christina Wald.

The sketchers are all about community, so if you or someone you know is an artist, they invite you to sketch with them!
