Plein Eire Dublin Paint-Outs

A 'Paint-Out' can be arranged by anyone. Even an impromptu session can be posted here if the weather is promising and you have an afternoon or a morning to spare. We try to meet regularly. Just decide on a time and a suitable venue and post a notice on the group page and 'Events'.

Time and location to be posted in advance both on "Plein Eire Dublin" and "Events" pages on this Plein Eire site.

RSVP on 'Events' for notice to be sent to you in the event of any change in plans or check this Plein Eire Dublin Group page on the morning of a paint-out .

Nominate a time and location with reasonable painting prospects.
Identify a local cafe or hostelry for artists to meet in before and after.
Indicate if there is parking available nearby, and if its free or metered.
Post the suggestion to 'Events'and copy and paste the link to the Comment Wall below on this page.

Members may also propose paint-outs at other times as suits them and ask for other members who may be available to join them.

Fingers crossed, looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow.

Comment by Bernadette McCarthy on June 3, 2014 at 18:48: Thanks Michael. I'll be there and look forward to it. Last year was very enjoyable.

Comment by Geraldine Donohoe on June 3, 2014 at 15:19: Hope to join you on Saturday Michael

Comment by Michael Keogh on June 3, 2014 at 14:23: Thanks Norah I will do that. I will also point out that the Japanese Gardens and Irish National Stud are all the one property and available to us all.

Comment by Norah Blount on June 3, 2014 at 14:11: Michael, you might need to post this as an event or else send emails to the group (go to group and see "send message" to group) as I think most people check out the events page or find out by the emails sent by the host. We are in Kildare on sat so might make it - the Japanese gardens nearby are another possibility

Comment by Michael Keogh on June 3, 2014 at 9:00: Reminder to all. Hope to meet up with you at the Irish National Stud next Saturday 7-June. I have arranged complimentary day passes for all Pleine Eire artists! Lovely Cafe open all day. The Irish National Stud is just 2km from exit 13 on M7 and is well signposted. The plan is to meet in the Cafe 10-30 ->11am.

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on May 16, 2014 at 9:17: No clash at all Michael, and thanks for taking the helm.

Comment by Michael Keogh on May 16, 2014 at 8:35: Hi All - I am unsure how to do this but here goes. I can organise a paint-out at the Irish National Stud on Saturday 7-June. I have already got their agreement and I suggest we meet in their Café 10-30-->11am. The Irish National Stud is just 2km from exit 13 on M7 and is well signposted. I don't know if anyone has already made other arrangements for that day and I don't want to clash. No doubt someone will let me know!

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on May 4, 2014 at 10:19: There was no Dublin Plein Eire paint out yesterday, although I know that siome members joined up with the Boyne Valley Group.

Personal stuff means that I can't get out and about at the moment, so could someone else please take on organizing of the paint outs?

Comment by Norah Blount on April 4, 2014 at 8:34: Great exhibition Valerie, hope to get out again midweek before it closes as it was so busy last sunday - well worth a visit and hope the demo goes well. I am doing a workshop in Kennedys on sat as otherwise I would have called out again for the demo
