The personal sketchbooks of more than 20 local artists will be on display at Flatline gallery, Saturday night. Unique to each artist, sketchbooks tend to be full of observational studies and jotted-down ideas; they’re candid representations of an artist’s thought process, said curator Elizabeth Munzon.

“Many great things happen in a sketchbook that don’t often get shared or put on public display, which is why I decided to curate this exhibition,” Munzon said. “I also love how every sketchbook is unique to its artist and unique to the time period it was being filled in. They can serve as chronological documentation of the evolution of an artist’s work.”

The Sketchbook Show opens Saturday, 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. at Flatline; 6023 Atlantic Ave. It will be up through March 20, with a closing reception set for 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Until then, you can also stop by during regular gallery hours: Thursday through Sunday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. For more info, click here.
