2nd of November - Stokerland, St Patrick's Park

This Sunday, 2nd November, Dublin Sketchers will sketch at ‘Stokerland’ in St Patrick’s Park in Dublin 8, a family-friendly free event organised by Dublin City Council for Halloween. 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 with a sketch book and say hello. You need to bring your own sketch book, pens, paints etc.

Everyone is friendly and from 4pm we will gather for a drink and to enjoy each others sketches at the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel nearby in Golden Lane D08VRR7. A bunch of sketchers will magically appear.

On Sunday the 26th of October, Dublin Sketchers will sketch at O'Connell Street from 2pm and meet for drinks at 4pm in the Gresham Hotel, 23 O'Connell Street Upper, North City, Dublin, D01C3W7.

This Sunday, Samhain on O’Connell Street will transform Dublin’s main thoroughfare into a lively Halloween celebration, filled with spooky games, street performances, striking props, and festive décor from around 1 pm to 6 pm. The free event, organized by Dublin City Council, invites people to experience the ancient spirit of Samhain in a creative and atmospheric way at the heart of the city.

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.

From 4pm, we'll gather for a drink and to enjoy each other’s sketches at the Gresham Hotel. A bunch of sketchers will magically appear.
