‘EMERGE’ - AN EXHIBITION FROM THE STUDENTS OF ARTSBASE
Start Date 11 September 2009
Tallaght Probation Project, in association with Tallaght Community Arts, present ‘Emerge’, an exhibition of mixed media presented by the students of Artsbase. ‘Emerge’ will be launched on Wednesday 8th July at 6.30pm RUA RED Civic Square Tallaght Dublin 24.
Artsbase is a program which was set up by Tallaght Probation Project to enable people with a recognised talent for the arts to develop their skills in an nurturing environment and assist them in progressing to further training or career opportunities in their area of choice.
The exhibition alone features more than 60 individual pieces, in many different areas, such as photography, painting, drawing, mosaic and sculpture. The group has also produced a 16-track CD of songs and music, both covers and original work which was produced in conjunction with the music tutors, John Burke and Ben Custerson. Also, a broadsheet collection of their work created during the creative writing module, facilitated by the poet Yvonne Cullen, will be on display and available during the exhibition.
On the night of the launch, the students will take to the floor of RedRua’s performance space and demonstrate their other skills in music and song, poetry and performance. We anticipate… something wonderful”.
Artsbase is funded by the Probation Service, Tallaght Drugs Task Force and supported by County Dublin
