Urban Sketchers Twin Cities,
We have another wonderful opportunity to sketch in the CBS Conservatory & Botanical Collection located at 1534 Gortner Avenue, St. Paul, MN 55108 inside of the Plant Growth Facilities West Building on the Saint Paul Campus of the University of Minnesota. Get out of the cold and into the warm air with green plants! We went the last 2 years and had a blast and are excited to return!

Time: 12-3pm (if the door is locked, contact Jennifer Powers at 651-968-7773)
