This is a unique opportunity to showcase your work within one of Ireland’s most high-profile public events, engaging a large and diverse audience. We are particularly interested in hearing from practitioners across visual art and craft whose work reflects strong material practice, innovation, and a connection to tradition and making.

They are seeking:
• Artists and makers interested in exhibiting their work
• Practitioners open to engaging audiences through live demonstration or making
• Interactive or participatory activity proposals
• Work suited to a dynamic, high-footfall, public-facing environment

Activities may include:
• Live making or demonstrations
• Interactive workshops (where feasible)
• Exhibition of finished work
• Sharing processes, materials, or techniques with audiences

 

This is an initial expression of interest no additional materials are required at this stage.
