Dublin Sketchers get together every Sunday afternoon in Dublin to sketch. We go to a different place each week. Check here before hand to see where we are off to. Come along if you fancy it! We start sketching from 2pm and meet at 4pm for a drink and chat. We are part of the global Urban Sketchers community.
Sunday 7th June, Dawson street
This Sunday 7th June, we’ll sketch around the dawson street area at 2 pm and we’ll meet at 4 pm at the Buswell hotel, 23-27, Molesworth St, Dublin 2, D02 CT80.
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.
Sketches from Kingfisher Project, May 31st
May 31st, Kingfisher Project, Kimmage D12
On Sunday, May 31st, we are invited to sketch in the Kingfisher Project sustainable community gardens in Kimmage, D12 W8C8. Located on the banks of the River Poddle, Kingfisher transformed what was once an underutilized urban public wasteland into a thriving, biodiversity-rich hub. The garden is also a collective educational resource, reintroducing nature into urban living. The thriving gardens provide ample urban nature sketching opportunities.
Getting there: Kimmage is serviced by bus routes 82, S2, 74, F1/F2/F3. Opposite the Pickles deli / Sundry laundry, a laneway leads directly to the garden gates. We will be met in the gardens with avid community members who will show us around. Thanks Caroline G for making this connection!
At 4pm we will meet at the Stone Boat pub to chat and share our sketches. 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. You need to bring your own paper and pens/pencils etc.
