TAKING A PEN FOR A WALK

To celebrate Preserve Chattanooga’s 50th anniversary, we held a summer drawing contest inspired by Ray Gindroz’s book Taking a Pen for a Walk: Discovering Towns and Cities Through Drawing.

The Bauhaus artist Paul Klee once wrote “Drawing is taking a pen for a walk”, to which Ray Gindroz added, “to see what it discovers along the way.”. Chattanooga has a rich architectural heritage to discover. Our “Taking a Pen for a Walk in Chattanooga” contest was a fun way to do so.
