There are many interesting exhibits inside the Museum.  The area also has a very good view of the seaport and if the weather is good there will be many sketching opportunities outside. 

For those who can stay, lunch will be at Rock The Dock Pub & Grill across the parking lot.  Please support our sketcher-friendly venues by buying their food or beverages while sketching on their premises.  So be generous, be considerate of the establishment and their customers and show the world how sketching can help everyone to be happy!

Third Wednesday, October 16: Bass Pro Shops

Bass Pro Shops/Outdoor World
7905 Hosmer Street, Tacoma, WA 98408




Meet at 10 am in the lobby just inside.  We'll sketch until 12:30 and then meet to share our sketchbooks.

This very large store is located just a few minutes south of the Tacoma Dome off I-5.  There is plenty of free parking.  

Even if you don't want to sketch the animal mounts, there are lots of other things to sketch.  The ball returns in the bowling alley (called "The Fish Bowl") are amazing.  There are sporting scenes with models that don't move (mannequins).  There is a very large aquarium.



 Lunch for those who want to stay in the adjoining restaurant.  Please support our sketcher-friendly venues by buying their food or beverages while sketching on their premises.  So be generous, be considerate of the establishment and their customers and show the world how sketching can help everyone to be happy!
