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.
Sun 29th December
Sketches from Smithfield 22nd December
Sunday 22 December - Festive experience at Smithfield
This Sunday from 2pm we will be sketching in and around the brand new festive experience at Smithfield Square, with lots of opportunities to sketch at the Ice rink, Ice museum, Christmas Market and Big Wheel. Meeting from 4pm at The Generator to chat and show our sketches
Sketches from Grand Canal Dock December 15th
Sunday 15 December - Grand Canal Dock area
A few areas of interest for sketchers:
- The Samuel Beckett’s bridge
- Grand Canal Quay and its red sticks designed by Daniel Libeskind
- Pearse Square Park and its Georgian houses
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 Hill pub. A bunch of sketchers will magically appear.
If you would like your sketch to be added to the website, email it to dublinsketchers @ gmail .com or post it to 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 to the website. If you are posting your sketch on Instagram please #dublinsketchers #urbansketchers
Hope to see you there!
