Saturday April 18 * noon-2pm * Free

A collaborative drawing activity popular at furry conventions around the world, now coming to Rhizome! Bring a sketchbook, your favorite art tools, and a written or drawn reference sheet (an original character, prompt, or idea you’d like someone to draw). Participants leave their sketchbook at a table at the front of the room and pick up another artist’s book to draw in, returning it when finished and choosing a new one.

There’s no right or wrong way to participate. Quick, experimental sketches are encouraged, and artists of all skill levels are welcome. By the end of the event, you’ll leave with your original sketchbook filled with drawings by other artists. Feel free to drop in or out at any time!

While the sketchbook swap format comes from furry conventions, the event is open to anyone interested in low-pressure, collaborative drawing and meeting other artists.
