Dublin Sketchers Group

Sunday 11 November - Collins Barracks

On Sunday 11 November, Dublin Sketchers will sketch at Collins Barracks from 2pm and meet for drinks at 4pm in The Galway Hooker, Parkgate Street, beside Heuston Station.

If it’s your first time out and you can’t spot anyone at 2pm, just choose something to sketch and get stuck in. Keep your eyes open for anyone carrying a sketchbook and say hello. It's a friendly crowd who you’ll get to know over a drink from 4pm. Don't worry if you're late, most of us usually are! You need to bring your own paper and pens/pencils etc.

About Collins Barracks: Museum Luas stop is beside it. Plenty of choice for sketching both inside and out, weather permitting. Leave yourself plenty of time to explore the Irish haute couture, furniture, silver, jewellery and ceramics, not to mention the exhibitions. All this amazing history & it's all free to see.

From 4pm, we'll gather for a drink at The Galway Hooker, 26 Parkgate Street, beside Heuston Station.

A bunch of sketchers will magically appear.

Sunday 4 November - The Freemasons' Hall

On Sunday 4 November, Dublin Sketchers will sketch in/at The Freemasons' Hall at 2 o'clock.

There will only be 1 member of staff on (Paddy has worked there since the late 1970's so will be able to answer any questions we have) so we will not be given a guided tour but we are welcome to see the museum and the meeting rooms. So it would be ideal if we could meet outside at 2pm and go in together but if you arrive later, no problem, I will stay in the hallway and keep an eye out

We will meet for drinks at 4pm at The Duke (usually plenty of room upstairs)

If you've not been out with Dublin Sketchers before, we're a relaxed and friendly bunch of people who like to sketch and draw. Bring along your own gear (paper, drawing implements etc), pick something to sketch and get stuck in.
