Be mindful of the COVID risk. Rates are low now though it's still with us. Flu is high right now.
Please stay home if you're feeling ill, regardless of a negative COVID test. It could be a cold, flu, or RSV to which older people are also vulnerable. Our group has many Seniors. Even if it's "just a cold", we'd rather not catch it! Thanks for taking care of each other.
Meet at 10 am in the covered area outside the front doors to the store. For early birds: Watson’s opens at 9 am.
This is an indoors-outdoors sketch-out, depending on the weather.
Let's sketch the early spring greenery and flowers.

Third Wednesday, March 19: Bass Pro Shop
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. There are sporting scenes with models that don't move (mannequins). There is a 12,000-gallon freshwater aquarium with a diorama of a running waterfall .
