Sketcher Fest 2024

Sunday, July 21st, 2024

If you have yet to hear, Sketcher Fest is back for another year! After last year’s event, we couldn’t wait to mark our calendars for 2024 and are overjoyed to be attending the annual event again. Sketcher Fest is July 19th–21st in Edmonds, Washington, and we hope to see you there!

Art Toolkit will be at the Sketchbook Fair & Art Market on Sunday, July 21st from 10am to 6pm. We will have a variety of supplies from our new shop, ranging from sketchbooks to pens and, most importantly, with our special limited-edition emerald green Sketcher Fest Folio Palette! We’re excited to bring something new to our table. Be sure to come to build your own palette—we will have a station set up with a variety of empty pans for you to choose from!

Art Toolkit founder Maria Coryell-Martin will give a presentation from 1pm to 2pm on Sunday, July 21st in the Gold Sponsor Room about her expeditions and her experience painting around the world. Be sure to stop by, say hello, and join Maria to explore fundamental tools and techniques for creating colorful and expressive sketches. Art Toolkit supplies will be available to demo during the presentation, or you can bring your own sketchbook to follow along!
