About this event
These relaxed outdoor sessions invite everyone to get creative at their own pace. Whether you're an experienced artist or picking up a pencil for the first time, you're welcome to drop by the lawn and sketch. Find inspiration in the Gallery's beautiful surroundings: from the architecture of the Gallery building itself and the elegant streetscape of Georgian Dublin and Merrion Square, to the bronze statue of William Dargan by renowned Irish sculptor Thomas Farrell R.H.A.
There is no charge to participate, no booking is required, and all materials will be provided.
