SATURDAY: Sketch the Museum of the American Indian
|
|
Let's sketch the museum’s permanent and temporary exhibitions—as well as a range of public programs, including music and dance performances, films, and symposia—explore the diversity of the Native people of the Americas.
In addition, the building itself is a fantastic Beaux Arts structure with loads of interesting lines and perspective challenges.

NOTES:
- Despite the metal detector I’ve brought my sketching stool numerouse times with no problem. A stool is always a handy item that allows you to sketch from the very best spot.
