Féile na Cásca / Easter Art Exhibition 5-12 April 2015
This year’s Féile na Cásca will be held in An Máimín Baile an Fheirtéaraigh – doors opening at 2 p.m. Easter Sunday. The exhibition will contain works from over eighty artists as well as projects from students from all the Primary Schools in Corca Dhuibhne. Join us on Facebook and Twitter. Images from the exhibition will be put up regularly along with ongoing news.
Féile na Cásca is an integral part of the work of Comharchumann Forbartha Chorca Dhuibhne. We are grateful to all the people who support us every year. Treise libh! The exhibition will show works this year from Maria Simonds-Gooding, Tomás Ó Cíobháin, Liam Ó Néill, Bob Ó Cathail, Linda Ní Ainiféin, Julie Beckett and many more along with works from first time artists such as Astrid Janning and Daire Ó Beaglaoich. Don’t miss it!
The Primary Schools’ Projects.
This year’s projects will celebrate buildings - old and new - in the vicinity of the schools. These are buildings which have a local history and also play a large part in the life of the community. The Comharchumann team moved into a beautiful new building before Christmas – thanks to Coiste an Chomharchumainn, Údarás na Gaeltachta agus an Roinn Ealaíon, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta. Let’s celebrate this!
All the schools from Dún Chaoin east to Abhainn an Scáil and Clochán Bhréanainn will visit these buildings over the coming weeks & will create works of art that develop from these visits. We are grateful to all the teachers, owners and guides who have facilitated these trips – Tadhg Ó Coileáin, Síle Uí Mhaolchatha, Máirín Uí Chonchubhair, Isabel Bennett, Liam Ó Rócháin agus Maria Simonds-Gooding. Nár laga Dia sibh!
