Getting to the parking lot for the Torggler is a bit convoluted. You will enter onto Avenue of the Arts from Warwick Blvd. Follow the road around, past a small traffic circle of sorts, stay straight. You will pass the POPE CHAPEL on your right and Saunders Plaza. Directly ahead of you will be the Paul Trible Library
TURN RIGHT and continue down until you see the parking lot on your left. Walk across the street to the TORGGLER, enter and look around. Look UP when you come in too! As always, the meetings at the Torggler are free and open to the public and anyone interested in watermedia, or water based artistic creations. |
