Carlow Arts Festival 2019 dates are June 4th to 9th and the festival team have a fantastic line up of creative events and exhibitions, including interactive shows, street music, theatre and even a drive-in movie. Many of the events are free thanks to the organisers and sponsors.
Artists from around the world join with local artists to perform and display their work. Along with many pop-up galleries the Visual Gallery will be exhibiting a collection entitled ‘Art Works’ until August 31st 2019. This year artists have been invited to submit their work for selection in response to the song lyric:
Dearly beloved,
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life
Let’s go crazy, Prince. 1984
During Carlow Arts’ Festival my art work will be on display in the window of Shaw’s retail store on Tullow Street, Carlow.
Carlow Arts Festival is an important cultural event for the Carlow area which has plenty to offer its visitors in terms of hospitality, good food and heritage. Carlow offers outdoor pursuits such as river and forest walks, fishing and rowing and of course plenty of opportunity for shopping - Carlow Visitor Information.
I look forward to meeting my creative friends during the festival and visiting their exhibits and performances too.
My art is an expression of stories that awaken dreams and keep them alive. I love vibrant colours and the freedom of allowing imagination to seep through reality.
I invite you to explore my artwork in the interest of feeding your own dreams and keeping them alive. You will find landscapes, trees, scenes from lands such as India and Portugal. You can choose from original paintings in a variety of sizes or a range of prints including some limited editions.
Through my art and writing I share stories and inspiration for transformation, healing and dreams turning to reality. When you visit my gallery you glimpse my journey, my authentic path. It took a ‘Break True’ moment to point me towards developing my artistic talents. It’s never too late to make a new start. I’ve achieved a lot in a relatively short time. My work has been presented in New York as part of St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, has been displayed on county Post Office and has been show-cased on National TV. Read more about my art journey here.
