Sketching Union Station

     SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2026 | 1:00-3:00PM

Can’t pass on this annual tradition of sketching one of our wintertime favourites! Let’s head back to Union Station, capture the grandeur of the Great Hall, sketch the people transiting through, and the myriad activities in the hub. Remember there’s also a vast subterranean food hall to discover.

1pm - optionally check in with hosts at the Great Hall by the clock before finding a sketch spot.

3pm - reconvene in the same spot for our group throwdown to share sketches, chat, and take a group photo.

Please note:
NO oil or acrylic paints to be used at this time at the venue’s request due to the heritage floors. Watercolours in a pan format are allowed. Please be mindful to avoid any paint spillage.

Please do not block pedestrian traffic and treat security with courtesy.

Tag @torontounion in your social media posts—they would love to see your sketches!

Where: Union Station, 65 Front St W
When: February 21, 1-3pm
Hosts: Natalie and Vivian
