Klyde Warren Park is a 5.4-acre deck above Woodall Rodgers Freeway, linking Uptown, the Arts District and downtown’s business center. On November 7, participants can draw downtown Dallas’s landscape and architecture from the park as part of a group plein-air session.
Klyde Warren Park opened in 2012 over a recessed eight-lane freeway. Its setting makes the session’s focus on urban landscape and architecture especially apt: the park is itself a major piece of Dallas’s built environment, as well as a connection between several central neighborhoods.
The event description names downtown Dallas broadly as the subject, rather than specifying a single building or view. Participants interested in drawing the existing city can bring their own interpretation to that open brief.

The Cedars Union and MCat Davis, identified as a member of the organization’s Cohort 5, host the group excursion. The park describes it as a relaxed drawing session; its listing does not set out a sequence of exercises or name a particular drawing technique.
That broad format leaves the cityscape—not a prescribed finished piece—at the center of the activity. The park’s description welcomes every skill level and suggests bringing preferred dry media, while noting that some supplies will be provided.

At the same time, Build Your City! with ADEX is scheduled in the Lecture Hall. This free, come-and-go activity is open to all ages and uses craft supplies and building techniques to make an imagined city; the park’s examples include designing a park or a new kind of school. It offers a different choice from drawing downtown as it exists: participants can build a version of the city they would like to see.
The drawing session is scheduled for 12:00–2:00 p.m. Central.
