Dublin Sketchers Group

On Sunday 11th August We're going to the Grand Canal (Baggot street end).

We'll meet at 2pm at Starbucks and again here at 4pm. The address is 65 Mespil Rd, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 (just off Baggot street lower). It's a 20minute walk from Stephens green or you can get the 39/ 39a/ 38a/ 38/ 37 from O Connell street or Blanchardstown. There's a also a Dublin Bike stand nearby.

If you've not been before, you'll spot us easily as we'll be holding our sketch pads. Don't worry if you're late - just get stuck in with the drawing.

Sunday 4th August, sketches from Stephens Green area and Cafe en Seine.

A good meet up between Stephens Green, The Green Centre and Cafe en Seine. Considering it was a Bank Holiday, there were thunderous Showers and not to mention a Bus Strike, we still produced a nice pile of work!

The Chester Beatty Museum, 28th July

On Sunday 28th July Chester Beatty Library and Dublin Castle Grounds

This Sunday we'll meet at 2pm at the entrance to the Chester Beatty library in Dublin Castle. There is a 50% chance of rain but if it holds off people can draw around the grounds of the castle. The castle coffee shop beside the state apartments is also a good spot with a great view overlooking the Dubhlinn garden in front of the Chester Beatty.

If you've not been before, you'll spot us easily as we'll be holding our sketch pads. Don't worry if you're late - just get stuck in with the drawing.

We'll meet again at the entrance to the Chester Beatty museum at 4pm before going on up to the new castle coffee shop (Not the Silk Road Café inside the Chester Beatty but the one up the ramp from the Dubhlinn Garden) for coffee and chat and the usual exchange of notebooks.
