Put Yourself in the Portrait Gallery 4 Mar - 9 Apr 2017

Put Yourself in the Portrait Gallery
Children are the focus of our portrait gallery, with a collection of 12 portraits by acclaimed Irish artist Brian Maguire alongside a range of self-portraits drawn by children.

Having seen all these, you will be able to use our portrait drawing stations to draw your own self-portraits to add to the collection.

In partnership with St Patricks Festival
Watch some of Ireland’s most renowned portrait artists in action in our gallery, chat to them about their work and get tips about drawing. The artists will be in the gallery from 10.30am-4pm.
