Explore Turner as Inspiration through this engaging sketching tour, incorporating rich historical information, art appreciation and lightly facilitated tuition. 

Sketching directly from art objects enhances our observational skills, fosters a deeper understanding of visual form, and strengthens our ability to perceive the world around us. On this tour, our expert artist educators will guide you as you look closely at superb artworks and respond through your own expressive mark-making.  

  • All materials are provided, and no artistic training or ability is required, simply a desire to look, learn and respond creatively!
  • Meet your sketching tour guide in our Atrium, near the Merrion Square Information Desk.  
  • Please read our Visitor Guide for details of what to expect on your visit to the Gallery.
