Art Aficionados After School Art Club
Our Education and Community outreach programmes are taking place entirely off-site in locations throughout the city during our refurbishment period. We are delighted to be linking in with Charleville Mall library where our after school art club for children in the NEIC area is now taking place.
Since 2024, we have curated imaginative after school artist-led art workshops for children from the NEIC area. Taking place at the Hugh Lane Gallery, the children looked at artworks throughout the gallery spaces with opportunities for discussion and sketching. Artist-led practical art workshops then took place in our Education Studio Space.
