On Sunday the 6th January 2019 Dublin Sketchers will sketch at The National Gallery of Ireland from 2pm to 4pm.


For our first sketchers meet up of 2019 the Dublin Sketchers will go to the National Gallery of Ireland.

We will meet at 2pm at the Merrion Square W entrance and at 4pm we will meet for coffee at the Gallery Coffee Shop.

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.

Look forward to seeing you there,

Aideen

Sunday 16 December - Costa on corner of Dawson Street and Nassau Street

On Sunday 16th December Dublin Sketchers are going to Costa at the corner of Dawson Street and Nassau Street.
It's become a tradition to sketch each other on our last outing of the year.  All very informal. There should be plenty of space in the basement of the coffee shop. And the ground floor is quite nice, but can be busy.

If the weather is fine and you would like to sketch outdoors, Trinity College is just across the road.

As we'll be in the coffee shop for a couple of hours, do remember to BUY something to drink/eat while you draw!
 

The session is from 2pm - 4pm roughly, and we'll have our usual gathering to check out each other's masterpieces in the same place.



If you haven't been before, it should be very easy to spot us. Do come and say hello. Don't worry if you're late, most of us usually are. Bring your own paper, pens, etc.

For those of you who would like to celebrate the festive season, a few of us will be going to Buswells on Molesworth Street from 7pm for "A Christmas Family Rows" literary cabaret, with comedy, music and tango. Details and tickets are available on Eventbrite

Our next outing will be Sunday 6th of January, so Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, etc. etc.




Sketches from Dublin Castle State Apartments, 9 December 2018

A warm welcome from the staff at Dublin Castle State Apartments on Sunday. And warm rooms. Beautiful interiors. Lavish Christmas decorations. Enthusiastic and talented sketchers. Plus gorgeous hot chocolate at the Terrace Café. All contributed to a great afternoon.
