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 Plein Eire Administrator on July 4, 2021 at 10:50: Hi Margaret. You're joined up and should see any new paint-outs posted. There's also a Whatsap group in parallel with this site and you will probably want to be included in it. Message Sheila MacNally to add you, if you wish to avail of it.

Comment by Margaret Hennessy on July 3, 2021 at 13:55: I'm only getting to grips with this site now. I would love to be let know about paintouts with the group if you wouldn't mind me joining you. I won't be able to attend all but would love to be able to attend some of them. I will hopefully get to meet you at the art in the open event
