September Sketchwalk at Gillman Barracks





Hi Sketchers!

This weekend we're heading to Gillman Barracks! ๐ŸŽจ

Tucked off Alexandra Road amid greenery, Gillman Barracks was built in 1936 as a British military camp, named after Sir Webb Gillman. Today its conserved colonial buildings house a cluster of contemporary art galleries and cafes.
Landmark to look out for:
