Celebrate National Drawing Day in Wexford – Saturday, 16 May 2026

Wexford is joining the island-wide celebration of creativity on National Drawing Day, taking place on Saturday, 16 May 2026. This annual event, coordinated by the National Gallery of Ireland, invites everyone—from seasoned artists to first-time doodlers—to pick up a pencil and get creative.

In Wexford, The Makers House will host a family-friendly drop-in drawing workshop, offering hands-on fun for all ages. It’s a perfect opportunity for parents and children to explore drawing together and learn new techniques in a relaxed, welcoming setting.

National Drawing Day connects over 50 venues across Ireland, including galleries, museums, and arts centres, making it easy to take part no matter your location. Participants in Wexford can join workshops, share ideas, and celebrate the joy of expressing imagination on paper.

For those unable to attend in person, the National Gallery of Ireland provides an online hub with creative resources, tutorials, and information about events happening nationwide.

Whether you’re sketching at The Makers House or exploring the online activities, National Drawing Day 2026 is a chance for Wexford residents to make their mark and celebrate the art of drawing.
