[FREE] Adventerous walk - Bushy Park exploration & Picnic! 🌳

Sat, May 23 · 11:00 AM IST

Bushy Park, bushy park, terenure, Dublin, Dublin, IE

The perfect way to spend a Saturday? Active walk, socialising & Saturday Market!
In May we are bringing you a Saturday morning filled with fresh air, local exploration, and genuine connection.
This time we’re heading south to explore the hidden corners of Bushy Park and the banks of the River Dodder.
📍 Where we meet:
We’re gathering at the entrance close to the Bushy Park House at 11:00 AM. We’ll hang around until 11:15 to make sure everyone finds us! Your hosts Maja, Norbert & Stephen will be there to welcome you (a visual guide will be sent to your inbox a day before the walk!).

***

🥾 The Journey:
We’ve curated a route that ensures we won't take the same path twice! Expect a "leisure stroll" pace—this isn't a race; it's about being present.

The Route: A 6km loop starting at the Bushy Park House bus stop. It’s mostly flat with a few steps along the way.
The Twist: We’ve prepared a small Treasure Hunt for you to keep your eyes peeled and your mind engaged! 🏴‍☠️📦
The Destination: We’ll finish up at the vibrant Saturday Food Market. It's the perfect spot to grab some lunch or an ice cream and continue the chat! 🍦

***

✨ The Quality Time Vibe:
At Quality Time, we trade distractions for something more fulfilling.

Silent Time: We’ll enjoy 15–25 minutes of intentional silence at a stunning viewpoint to connect with nature.
Genuine Connection: A chance to meet like-minded people who value being present (we will help!)
Great Memories: No phone-checking, but feel free to bring your "normal" camera to capture the greenery! 📷

***

🕰️ The Schedule:

11:00 – 11:15 | Meet-up at Bushy Park House bus stop.
11:15 – 14:00 | The Walk & Treasure Hunt: Connection with others & nature.
14:00 | Arrival at the market for soft goodbyes (or optional social lunch!).

***

🐥 What to bring:

👟 Comfortable Shoes: It’s a 6km stroll, so treat your feet well!
🌦️ Layers & Rain Gear: It’s Ireland—let’s be prepared for all four seasons in one morning.
💧 Water & Snacks: Keep your energy up as we explore.
🦮 Pets: More than welcome! (Please keep them on a lead and bring bags 💩).
💛 Yourself: Just as you are. No "content" needed, just your presence.

***

🎟️ Tickets & Community Support:
This walk is donation-based. We believe that intentional, offline time should be accessible to everyone. If you’d like to support our mission and help us continue organising these curated community events, any contribution is warmly welcomed! 💛
You can donate on Luma (also, sign up to our membership!)
Note: Everyone is responsible for their own safety and possessions. Let’s look out for one another!
We can't wait to share some Quality Time with you in the park.
Hugs, Maja & Lexie 🦄🦆🌿

Thu, Jun 11 · 6:30 PM IST
Ruby Molly Hotel & Bar, 26 - 33 Arran St E, North City, Dublin, D07 YY97, Dublin, IE
Dublin deserves more Quality Time—and a little more handmade charm.
Ready to slow down your Thursday evening, learn a beautiful new skill, and create something both practical and lovely?

Join us on June 11th at 18:30 in the cosy library at the Ruby Molly Hotel for our next dedicated workshop. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to pick the hooks back up, we’ve designed a relaxed, low-pressure evening centred around texture, rhythm, and great company.

Please RSVP on Luma page, so we can order the right amount of materials! This is a discovery listing!

## ✨ We have private, reserved seating at the Ruby Molly ✨

📘 What We’re Making We will be crafting a beautiful Book Sleeve to protect your favourite reads! During the workshop, our teachers (Polina, Emi, and Shayna) will guide you step-by-step through the continuous granny square technique. It’s the perfect, meditative pattern to zone-out into once you get the rhythm.
🕰️ The Schedule
- 18:30 – 18:45 | Arrive & Unwind: Grab a drink at the bar, pick your yarn, and get comfortable.
- 18:45 – 21:15 | The Creative: Hands-on instruction. We will get our loops started, learn the stitches, and dive into the soothing flow of crocheting together. In the meantime - we will also have some quality time conversations and connect 🙂
- 21:15-21:30 | Soft goodbyes
🎟️ Choose Your Ticket Type We want to make this as seamless as possible for you. Choose the option that fits your craft kit:
- 🧵 The Full Package (€15): Includes entry to the workshop, all the blue yarn needed for your book sleeve, and your very own 4mm crochet hook to keep for future projects.
- 🧶 Just the Yarn (€13): Includes entry to the workshop and all the blue yarn needed. Note: You must bring your own 4mm crochet hook! Please ensure it is exactly this size so your sleeve fits perfectly.
THE TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE UP TO THE 31st OF MAY SO WE CAN HAVE TIME TO ORDER THE MATERIALS!
Please RSVP on Luma page, so we can order the right amount of materials! This is a discovery listing!

💜 Essentials:
- Solo-Friendly: Most of our community members come solo! We are experts at making you feel welcome and part of the group immediately.
- Boutique Vibes: The Ruby Molly is a non-cash venue, so please bring a card/phone to support our lovely hosts by treating yourself to a drink or snack at the bar.
- Come for the craft, stay for the connection. Spaces are strictly limited due to the cosy nature of the library, so claim your corner early!
