Urban Sketchers meet in Rosais, at the western end of São Jorge, on 14 November for a session devoted to the island's scenery, led by Pieter Adriaans. The idea is to look closely at the surroundings and record them by drawing on the spot. It is part of the Velas municipality's cultural programme. The listing gives no meeting point, start time or fee, so get in touch before you go. A good fit for a visitor who draws, at any level, and a way to spend a few hours with residents who know the island well.
Rosais is at the western end of São Jorge, a short drive from Velas; you will need a car or taxi, and the listing does not give a meeting point.
Drawing outdoors; the listing does not say what happens if it rains, so check with the organisers on the day.
