Sketch at Sea: Adventure Art Demo

September 28, 2025, 12:30 – 2:00 PM

Join expeditionary artist and Art Toolkit founder Maria Coryell-Martin for an adventure sketching demo on Sunday, September 28th from 12:30pm–2pm aboard the Port Townsend-Coupeville ferry!

We’ll practice gesture, contour, and thumbnail sketches to quickly capture a sense of place. Bring your own sketching supplies, and we’ll also have Art Toolkit travel palettes and brushes available to borrow. Join us for the round trip or one way!

We’ll be on the 12:30pm sailing from Port Townsend and on the 1:15pm Coupeville ferry. Participants will need to purchase their own walk-on passenger tickets from the ferry terminals on either side.

All levels are welcome!
