We were joined by Carla and her Plein Air group, &#8220;Sketchy Friends&#8221; from the east side of the Island. All gathered for lunch at Starboard Grill. Thanks to all who attended! See you next year. If you have any ideas for locations, pls message us. * And if you have any photos from the weekend to share, please contact us.
