SEPA is an association of amateur and professional painters who paint together regularly outdoors in S.E. Ireland. All artists are welcome. SEPA organises Ireland's 'Art in the Open' plein air festival. SEPA membership is free. NB. As with all Paint-Outs posted on Plein Eire, these events are simply notifications of intent by one individual to be at a particular place and time to paint. Each member's participation is entirely at his/her own risk. No responsibility for harm or loss of person or property on the part of anyone else is intended or implied.

Here are a few ideas for paint-out venues. Please add your own suggestions and we'll get a schedule together for the coming weeks. Your addfitional recommendations welcome.

Ballinkeele House

Newtownbarry House & Gardens

Dunamore Wood (Borodale) (no facilities)

Rosslare Harbour Lagoon

Tinahely

Wexford Beaches

Wexford Gardens

The Still Pond, near Enniscorthy

As ever, it is weather permitting, so in case the organiser needs to cancel, please indicate by RSVP for each event so a single message will let everyone know if an event is 'On' or 'Off'.

In particular, it seems smaller villages where we have access to coffee and a bite and a chance to say'hello' are sought-after venues. Here are some suggestions:

Duncormick, Screen, Killinick, Lady's Island, Clohamon, Saltmills, Slade

Comment by Tony Robinson on February 17, 2015 at 23:01: The Huntington Castle gardens at Clonegal are open daily May - September 10.00 to 6.00 pm.(Tickets cost €5 per adult)

If heading beyond the village (which is very pleasant) into the Castle grounds, we need to check first with Huntington Castle.

Comment by Geraldine Donohoe on February 17, 2015 at 19:29: I have just 'discovered' the Events page Michael. Doh!

Comment by Michael McGuire on February 17, 2015 at 17:04: It's up under "Events", Dick. Can you do 26th April, Louise?

Comment by Dick Donaghue on February 17, 2015 at 17:00: I put a suggestion for 29th MCH at Altmont Gardens, but I don't see it appearing on this page?

Comment by Michael McGuire on February 17, 2015 at 16:36: Earliest available date now is 29th March, Louise. After that it's either 26th April or 10th May (some of us going to Germany around then?).

Comment by Louise Treacy on February 17, 2015 at 16:28: Not being lax or UN involved Michael, but I won't make a suggestion unless I am definitely going to go to the place I suggest. Thinkin of heading to the sun in a week or two so I won't suggest till I am sure I can go myself !!!! Don't want to stick ye with place I can't be myself lol
