tSoFA Zürich Chapter

[cas]

[WORK-IN-PROGRESS]

If you're living in the Canton of Zürich, Switzerland, or are willing to travel to Zürich to join a weekly drawing group then please get in touch.

This is just a draft post; I'll work on adding more information shortly. Eventually you'll find a list of members and events calendar, as things develop.

Also, please feel free to start a chapter in your local area, if you're not a Zürich local. I'll put together a few tips/guidelines regarding what it takes to run a successful artists sketching group. You needn't be an accomplished artist, just an enthusiastic one.

Thanks!
Chris

Hi Olga!

Unfortunately the group hasn't yet gotten off to a start because I've been too busy to organise anything. However my schedule for 2009 looks to be more relaxed so I hope that something will start happening as there are a few people interested.

By the way, thanks for all your recent posts on various threads. It'd be great if more people would contribute as much as you.

Thanks
Chris
