Dublin Sketchers Group: June 2016

Sunday 26th June - Stephen's Green for the People's Art Exhibition.

On Sunday the 26th June Dublin Sketchers are going to...Stephen's Green for the People's Art Exhibition.

The starting point at 2pm will be at the centre of the park itself.

If it’s your first time out and you can’t spot anyone who looks like a sketcher at 2pm, just choose something to draw and get stuck in. Keep your eyes open for anyone carrying a sketchbook and say hello. New people come along almost every week so don't be shy about introducing yourself.

It's a nice friendly gathering and you'll get know us over coffee 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.

Here's a website of the exhibition http://www.peoplesart.ie

From 4pm, we'll get coffees from Butlers and go back to the park and fins a place in the grass or in a bench! (In case of bad weather conditions, we might have to look for shelter at Stephen Green Mall, just beside the park.

This is where Butlers is Butlers at graft on.

Hope to see you there!

On Sunday 12th June the Dublin Sketchers are going to the Irish Architectural Archives at 45 Merrion Square, from 2pm to 4pm.

We normally are a very flexible group, but since this time the place is being opened specially for us, we would like to encourage punctuality: please try to arrive on time so that the facilitator doesn't have to keep opening the door.

Also we've been told to use ONLY DRY MATERIALS for the day (pens and pencils and not paints). Thank you!! :)
