MEMORY LANE
SHARING THE WORLD ONE DRAWING AT A TIME
The ALSW aims to celebrate and cultivate the practice of on-location drawing in the host city. This non-profit event offers valuable field-sketching tips and provides opportunities for participants to connect with others, make new friends, and improve their skills. Many ALSW participants are part of the global Urban Sketchers (USk) community, which shares the ethos of “sharing the world, one drawing at a time.” In 2024, we’re excited to bring ALSW to Penang, continuing the tradition of artistic exploration and community building.
