ABOUT SKETCH OUT/LOUD
The American Society of Landscape
Architects is celebrating World Landscape
Architecture Month (WLAM) in April with a series of events that
celebrate the places and people that make our profession vital, exciting and
significant. As part of that celebration Rutgers University Department of Landscape Architecture, Urban
Sketchers, and the NY and NJ Chapters of the ASLA will
launch “SKETCH OUT/LOUD” (SKO/L), a social media collaboration that
shares on location sketches of landscapes from around the world.
It’s very easy to participate. Add
the hashtag #skol2015 to your FB, Twitter or Instagram uploads when you
sketch a landscape (photos and videos are also ok). If you want to know more,
see the Sketch Out/Loud Flyer, visit the Sketch Out/Loud Blog or send an email to Richard
Alomar, ASLA (richard.alomar@rutgers.edu)
