Since we cannot able to visit the New York Botanical Garden to sketch on location, let's take a virtual walk through The Orchid Show for some welcome respite and inspiration. Tune in for a Facebook Watch Party with a video tour of the exhibition featuring Marc Hachadourian, Director of Glasshouse Horticulture and Senior Curator of Orchids. Through this tour Marc will show kaleidoscopic highlights of designer Jeff Leatham’s bold vision. Be inspired by what you see in the video or something else you find on the NYBG web site to create your sketches. Hope to "see" you Wednesday!
