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.
Sketches from Sun 2nd August - Grand Canal Dock and also near home
Sunday 2 August - Dublin Sketchers out on the streets
From 2pm on Sunday 2 August, Dublin Sketchers will be out and about together in central Dublin to sketch (location below) or sketch locally to you if you can't make it.
It goes without saying that everyone makes sure to keep 2 metres apart and follows government advice on Covid-19.
Here's a link to the government guidelines
From 2pm on Sunday 2 August Dublin Sketchers will sketch around Grand Canal Dock and the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre. If you are new, get stuck in and keep your eye out for other people sketching and say "hello."
Rather than meeting in a pub or coffee shop at 4pm, we'll gather outdoors to catch up and check out each other's work.
At 4pm on Sun 2 August, we'll gather near the red poles and space out in a large circle to show our sketches, keeping 2 metres apart. Please make the circle bigger if needed when you arrive. If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
- Don't touch other people's sketch books or share your sketching kit.
- Maybe bring something to sit on rather than using a bench (which might be in high demand).
- Arrange your own refreshments if you fancy it.
- There are a few cafés in the area if you are looking for a bathroom.
- Wear a face covering on public transport and indoors.
- If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
If you can't make it into Grand Canal Dock, then why not stay local and sketch in your Dublin neighbourhood. 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.
Please remember to keep things socially distant.
Looking forward to seeing you there!

From 2pm on Sunday 26th July Dublin Sketchers will sketch around the Garden of Remembrance in front of the Hugh Lane Gallery. There's plenty going on in the local streets if the mood takes you, or wander up to Blessington Basin. If you are new, get stuck in and keep your eye out for other people sketching and say "hello." It's Sunday, so time is fluid.
Rather than meeting in a pub or coffee shop at 4pm, we'll gather outdoors to catch up and check out each other's work. If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
At 4pm on Sun 26th July, we'll gather around the Children of Lir statue in the gardens and space out in a large circle to show our sketches, keeping 2 metres apart. Please make the circle bigger if needed when you arrive.
- Don't touch other people's sketch books or share your sketching kit.
- Maybe bring something to sit on rather than using a bench (which might be in high demand).
- Arrange your own refreshments if you fancy it.
- The Hugh Lane gallery is open for toilets.
- If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
If you can't make it into The Garden of Remembrance, then why not stay local and sketch in your Dublin neighbourhood. 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.

Sun 19th July sketching together in central Dublin or locally to you
From 2pm on Sunday 19th July Dublin Sketchers will be out and about together in central Dublin to sketch (location below) or sketch locally to you if you can't make it.

From 2pm on Sunday 12th July Dublin Sketchers will converge around Merrion Square to sketch. If you are new, get stuck in and keep your eye out for other people sketching and say "hello."
If
you are looking for a theme for the day, there's loads of great
sculptures in the park, or sketch the lamp-posts (Merrion Square is the
unofficial open air museum for Dublin lamp-posts through the years).
Rather than meeting in a pub or coffee shop at 4pm, we'll gather outdoors to catch up and check out each other's work. If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
At 4pm on Sun 19th July, we'll gather on the grass in front of Dermot Morgan aka Father Ted's chair and space out in a large circle to show our sketches, keeping 2 metres apart. Please make the circle bigger if needed when you arrive.
- Don't touch other people's sketch books or share your sketching kit.
- Maybe bring something to sit on rather than using a bench (which might be in high demand).
- Arrange your own refreshments if you fancy it.
- The toilets in the National Gallery are open. There is a one way system in operation at the gallery: enter via Merrion Square and exit on Clare Street.
- If it's raining, we won't move indoors together.
If you can't make it into Merrion Square, then why not stay local and sketch in your Dublin neighbourhood. 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.
