Open Studio Sunday 25th August 2013

For anyone planning to join us for our Open Studio event for Heritage Week please note that there will be traffic restrictions in the Phoenix Park because of a sports event. The Phoenix Park is such a popular place it can be difficult to find a day when events don’t clash, especially during the summer.  There are some parking spaces outside the Knockmaroon Gate (beside our studio) and also in the Angler’s Rest pub (about 500m from the studio).

Here is the notice on the OPW website:
