Location
Custom House Visitor Centre
To celebrate National Drawing Day in collaboration with The National Gallery of Ireland, the Custom House is offering families the opportunity to visit the Custom House for a children's tour based on the architecture and sculpture of the building.
After the tours the children will be given worksheets, colouring pencils and clipboards for a drawing session.
They can bring out the inner James Gandon by picking the Junior Architect worksheet. Or maybe their inner Edward Smyth by picking the Junior Artist Worksheet. For younger kids there’s also a lovely Custom House for them to colour in!
Tours will take place at 10am, 12 midday and 2pm on Saturday 17th May 2025, with the drawing session taking place after it. Places are limited, and booking is essential.
