Urban Sketchers Goa is the official Goa chapter of Urban Sketchers, a global community of sketchers dedicated to the practice of on-location drawing.

Goa is a small, vibrant state on the western coast of India, known for its beautiful beaches, colonial architecture, and rich culture.

We have been officially around since 2018, founded by Darpana Athale, along with co-admins Leandra Fernandes and Andrea Fernandes. Since then, we have completed more than 155 sketch meets, conducted sketch walks all over Goa showcasing the heritage, architecture and local culture. Also collaborated with local groups for causes, special events and workshops that align with our manifesto.
