Let's draw the Imperial War Museum and Lambeth - Saturday 11 November 2017

In November we are going to be drawing in and around the Imperial War Museum in Lambeth, London which is very appropriate as it is Remembrance Day.
Today is also a Worldwide Sketchcrawl Day.
We are going to meet slightly later than normal so that those who want to, can mark the remembrance silence, that is organised at the museum at 11 am.


The sketching group will meet at 11:15am under the portico, which is the North Entrance of the IWM ( http://www.iwm.org.uk/visits/iwm-london)



After the initial meeting, we will meet at:
1pm - inside the museum on the 4th floor - the area they call roof terrace - which is actually under the glass barrel vault, fully undercover.
3:30pm - if good weather - outside - on the North Portico again. This is undercover but if it is weather is very bad we'll meet upstairs on the roof terrace again.
Please note there will be a Group Photo taken after the 3:30 meet to celebrate the 10 years of USK and this USK Worldwide Sketchcrawl
4pm - The Three Stags pub on corner of Kennington Road and Lambeth Road - drinks and further chatting.

This is a free event, just come along and bring your own drawing equipment.

We are free to draw anything in the museum (airplanes, cars, tanks,etc), the space itself, inside and out. Nearby, you have plenty of streetscapes with good views including 18th century terraces, brutalist architecture flats at the junction with Kennington road, St George's Catholic Cathedral ( http://www.stgeorgescathedral.org.uk/), Lambeth Church and a bit further away, Newport St Gallery (https://www.newportstreetgallery.com/)

There are plenty of eateries in the area around Lambeth North tube and also a cafe at the museum itself.
