Plein Eire Dublin's First Sat Paint Out May 2013

We've been invited by PE Dub member Michael Keogh to join his painting group at a visit to St Fiacra's and the Japanese Gardens at the National Stud near Kildare. Michael says:

"There is a very nice Coffee/self-service dining facility just inside the Entrance and also adjacent to this, is a tourist-type souvenir shop etc…Car parking is free. There is an entrance fee charge to the complex but I have arranged to have this waivered for our members on the day. I stress, I think it is St Fiacra’s Garden that will enthral the members. Wonderful lake, old medieval type buildings, swans, ducks etc..Yes there will be horses and of course we must respect security of ourselves as well as the horses! In other words, make sure you keep a fence between you and the horses...Certainly a very good opportunity for taking photographs and the Stud have bus loads of tourists every day with tour guides working away all day."

Get in contact with me if you want a lift - lets try to minimise our carbon footprint - and help preserve what we've come to paint/draw!

Arrive sometime after 10.30 for 11 -11.15 start - ok! Lets meet in coffee shop..- Hope to see you there - J O Flynn/087 2709097
