About

Let’s sketch! Wrap up warm and pop along for an afternoon of urban sketching. Join the team at Wakefield Museum for a walk around the local area. Give it a go and learn from other like-minded people.


Urban sketching is nothing complicated. It’s just people getting together to have a go at sketching what they can see, wherever they are.


Please note: there is no tuition in this session. But, there will be pencils, paper and lots of encouragement on hand.


For adults 18+


Free, but booking required as spaces are limited.


If you would like more information about the route in advance, please email museumslearning@wakefield.gov.uk


This event is part of the public programme for Wakefield Museum’s latest Special Exhibition, Cynthia Kenny: A City Framed. Cynthia Kenny (1929 – 2021) captured the changing landscape of Wakefield with her paintbrush and pen. Spend some time in Cynthia’s Wakefield to admire iconic views and discover hidden gems.
