“we sell art and do art classes“
Artist-Founded, Artist-Run
SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery was co-founded by artists Steve Bradbury and Olena Kasian.
Everything at SparkNet is shaped by real, ongoing art practice. We understand what it’s like to start unsure, to experiment, to make mistakes, and to grow through doing. The gallery and education programme are built around that lived experience — practical, supportive, and grounded in making real work.
The Gallery
The gallery presents a rotating programme of contemporary artists working across painting, textile, print, and mixed media. We sell original artworks directly to collectors, homeowners, and businesses looking for thoughtful, well-made pieces.
The Art Classes
Education is at the heart of SparkNet, with an emphasis on enjoyment, confidence, and process rather than perfection.
Our core classes and workshops include:
- Spray Painting Workshops (Tuesdays)
Fast-paced, energetic sessions introducing spray painting techniques in a fun and accessible way. Popular with beginners, visitors to Dublin, and those looking for a creative experience that’s a little different. - 12-Week Art Foundation Courses (Saturdays)
A structured programme designed to build skills, confidence, and a personal approach to art-making over time. Ideal for those who want depth, consistency, and real progress. - Bubbles & Brushstrokes (Saturday evenings)
A relaxed oil painting experience paired with prosecco, designed to be social, creative, and unintimidating. No prior experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to have a go.
In addition, Bubbles & Brushstrokes is available for private group bookings (5+ people) at other times during the week, making it a popular option for birthdays, celebrations, and corporate group experiences.
A Space to Return To
SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery was created to be a place people return to — not just for a single class or purchase, but as part of an ongoing creative life.
By combining exhibitions and education under one roof, SparkNet offers:
- a place to discover and buy original art
- a place to learn new skills or restart an old passion
- a place that feels social, relaxed, and human
You don’t need to call yourself an artist to belong here.
SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery
SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery operates as SparkNet Ltd, independently run and artist-owned.
We work with individuals, artists, groups, and organisations who value originality, process, and creative experiences that feel personal rather than packaged.
About SparkNet
SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery is a contemporary art gallery and creative space based in Dublin city centre. Founded by artists, it exists for people who want to buy original art, learn how to make art, or reconnect with their creativity in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
We believe art doesn’t need to be intimidating, overly academic, or reserved for a select few. It should be practical, enjoyable, and something you can build confidence in over time.
Quite simply: we sell art and do art classes.
Alongside curated exhibitions, SparkNet Art Hub & Gallery runs regular open call exhibitions, inviting artists to showcase their work in a professional gallery setting. These open calls are open to both emerging and established artists, and everyone is welcome to apply. Our aim is to create genuine opportunities for artists to exhibit, gain visibility, and connect with audiences in an accessible and supportive environment.
There is no pressure, no jargon, and no need to “know about art” before you walk in. Buying art at SparkNet is conversational and straightforward, with clear pricing and direct access to the artists behind the work.
