Our sketching group SketchTogether meets monthly giving CDS Members and Friends an opportunity to hone their sketching skills at interesting locations, either indoors or outdoors. It’s a great way for CDS Members & Friends to get to know each other better and have some fun drawing. Please note this is only open to CDS Members & Friends.

We also have an open air sketching group (open to Members & Friends only) that meets every Wednesday during June and July from 10am-3pm in different places each week. The group also have a picnic lunch together. Due to the size of the different venues, this group is small and is currently full. Please contact the membership secretary if you would like to be on the waiting list.
