Art in Action 2010

Art in Action is a 3-day practical arts festival organised by the School where the best artists and craftspeople we can find are invited to set up studio and demonstrate their work and skills live.

Attendees can meet the artists informally and ask questions about their work and techniques. Also they can 'See into' the artist's studio to see how it's done and be inspired. At the event it is also possible to learn to make a piece of finished art at one of the many practical classes provided. Both adults and children are catered for.

When: Annually over the June Bank Holiday Weekend.

This year 5 - 7 June 2010.

Where: Townley Hall, near Drogheda, Co. Louth
