Come see this special event commemorating the 100th year of Route 66. We will have over 300 sketches on display from Urban Sketcher Chapters across the famous highway.
U.S. Route 66 spans 2,448 miles from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California, celebrating its official 100th centennial anniversary in 2026.
Established on November 11, 1926, the historic highway (“The Mother Road”) crossed eight states and served as a vital migration and economic corridor before being decommissioned in 1985 after full interstate replacement. Today, parts of the iconic route are preserved as scenic byways, national projects, and living Americana tourist attractions.
We will meet on the rooftop of the British International School in the south loop. An elevator and an exterior staircase inside/attached to the facility lead directly to the roof level.
