Weekday Urban Sketchers at NY Waterways Terminal and John Jay College


Join us for a day along midtown's west side. Really about as far west as you can get....out at the end of Pier 79 in the enclosed NY Waterways Ferry Terminal. The glass enclosed terminal will be our first stop where we can take advantage of the unobstructed views along the Hudson with the boat traffic and people scurrying on and off the ferries.

In preparation for our annual visit to the NY Court System, we will then take the free ferry shuttle busses to John Jay College on Amsterdam Ave and 59th Street to view the exhibit of courtroom artists, entitled "Rogues Gallery: A 40 Year Retrospective of Courtroom Art".  Here is a link to the exhibit posted by one of our own members

 If you are joining us for the afternoon only, the exhibit is at the Shiva Gallery 524 West 59th Street
