My Socially Engaged Art Practice

Workshop

Curious about how art can make a difference in the world? 16 – 18 year olds can jump into a lively Cruinniú na nÓg session where they meet a visiting artist whose work brings people together to explore real life themes like identity, culture and community, often teaming up with young people to create powerful artworks that share their ideas, voices and experiences. In this relaxed, interactive meet up, everyone can hear about inspiring projects shaped by youth creativity, chat about the issues that matter to them and discover how their own imagination can spark change. No experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to join the conversation, making this an empowering space for young thinkers and makers.
