thrilled they will be opening especially for us on Saturday 3/15. Join
us in the Warehouse District for an afternoon sketching antique and
restored cuckoo clocks, beer steins, phonographs, and much more. The
building housing the collection is also very sketchable.

to know: bring your own sketching stool or seating, no charcoal is
allowed in the museum. And, as always, be tidy as we're guests in this
space.
