This is a good one, - so much going on. We’re spending Saturday in Red Hook. We’ll be getting there by boat - the ferry at Pier 11/Wall St. There’s no neighborhood in NYC that has the vibe of Red Hook - lots to see, and lots to sketch and there's a big art show going on too.
The Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition is running a national juried art show, More Art of Coney Island which will be opening on Saturday - July 30, 2022. Three of our regular Urban Sketchers are showing their work, and we’re all excited.
DETAILS
What: We’ll be sketching in Red Hook, and we’ll be getting there by ferry from Manhattan.
Where: The ferry leaves from Pier 11/Wall St, (see map below)
When: Be at the ferry at 9:30 AM on Saturday morning for the salt water journey. If you miss the boat a new one leaves about every half hour. Anyone sketching in Red Hook is probably an Urban Sketcher!
How:
- By Subway to get to the ferry:
- Cortlandt - N, R, W
- Fulton - 2, 3, 4, 5,
- Wall St. 2, 3
- Bowling Green - 4, 5

Lunch: 12:00 Noon . Bring your own or rely on local vendors.
Afternoon: See the art show. Opens at 1 PM 481 Van Brunt St. (see second map below)
Show and Tell: 3:00 PM - We’ll find a likely spot to share our work, tell stories and talk about what artists talk about.
NOTE:
- Bring a hat and be prepared for sunshine
- Bring a stool if you have one, it gives you more options.
