Urban sketching: Pontefract

Fri 24 April 2026 - Fri 19 June 2026, 1pm - 2:30pm

The next occurrence is Fri 24 April 2026

Pontefract Museum

Let's sketch! Pop along for an afternoon of urban sketching.

We will start at Pontefract Museum and be inspired by the Picturing Pontefract exhibition. We'll then head out around the town centre.

Urban sketching is nothing complicated. It's just people getting together to have a go at sketching what they can see, wherever they are.

Please note: there is no tuition in this session. But, there will be pencils, paper and lots of encouragement on hand.

For adults 18+

If you would like more information about the route in advance, please email us at museumslearning@wakefield.gov.uk

This event is part of the public programme for Pontefract Museum’s latest Special Exhibition, Picturing Pontefract.
