W&CO x This Place Drink & Draw Rooftop Series
This summer, Watson & Company collaborated with This Place, a self-described ‘moving event project’ that gathers like-minded individuals for creative pop-ups through-out the city. For the third year in a row, we hosted a series of live figure drawing sessions on our rooftop and added a few crates of rosé to the mix to get the creative juices flowing. After work and just in time for magic hour over Manhattan, the roof was transformed into an open-air studio. Sans instruction, attendees were given complete freedom to explore their practice, meet other creatives, and keep it casual.
