On Sunday, April 26th, Dublin Sketchers will sketch around Irishtown / Ringsend from 2pm and meet for drinks at 4pm in The Merry Cobbler.
This time we’re heading to Irishtown / Ringsend: two neighbouring areas, very close to each other but each with its own feel. Ringsend is shaped by its past as a fishing village and port, while Irishtown has its roots in medieval Dublin and grew just outside the old city walls. The area feels authentic and quiet today, with plenty of cosy corners and small streets to sketch.
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 share sketches at The Merry Cobbler.
If you would like your sketch to be added to the website, email it to dublinsketchers@gmail.com or post it in the Dublin Sketchers Social WhatsApp group if you are on that. Please edit your image so that it is low res and properly oriented for posting. If you are sharing your sketch on Instagram, please use #dublinsketchers #urbansketchers.
Hope to see you there!
