POSTPONED: Visionnaire Series: Urban Sketching & Storytelling

Marcia Schrotenboer, local artist and co-founder of Urban Sketchers West Michigan, will guide you through the practice that has transformed her life and inspired thousands worldwide. She’ll share her tips, stories, and excitement to spark your own urban sketching journey.

Urban Sketchers is a global community of artists who draw on location, capturing the energy and character of the places around them. This isn’t about making perfect drawings. It’s about slowing down, having fun, and seeing the world through your own perspective.

Why sketch when you could just take a photo? Because sketching lets you experience the moment — the sights, sounds, smells, energy, temperature, and emotions of your surroundings. It’s personal, immersive, and a unique way to connect both with your surroundings and with a community of like-minded creatives.
