June happenings in NC live art
In this issue, I cover general June announcements, new meetups on the site, and Durham Plein Air pics.
June Announcements
- The Durham Plein Air events will be at Coker Arboretum on June 28 and tentatively back at American Tobacco Campus but at Ment Beverage Company since we mostly rained out last time. Stay tuned on the Draw Y'all meetup for the announcement.
- The Raleigh Outdoor Painting Group events will be at Downtown Cary Park on June 7 and Historic Oak View County Park on June 21.
- This month's M.U.S. SketchUp will be at Pluck Farm on SUNDAY June 8.
- As usual, Urban Sketching at CAM Raleigh will be on the second Saturday, June 14.
New meetups listed on NC Art Meets
We have two new meetups added to the site in the past month! Both are figure drawing:
- Zeitgeist is a new bar in Durham that will host figure drawing on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays (Arcana is still 2nd and 4th Wednesdays). Get updates from Zeitgeist's Instagram account.
- Saturday Muses: Sketchy Summer edition is hosting figure drawing on 1st and 3rd Saturdays. Spots sell out though, so you must RSVP in advance (DM on Instagram).
