Guerrilluinns in Residence 2023

Guerrilluinns in Residence
10 July to 20 July 2023

Guerrilluinns are in studio welcoming all members of the Youth Arts programme to use the space to develop their own work, the committee members will spend two full days working together exploring ‘succession or transition’ and creating a “zine” or scrapbook, collecting the individual and collective artistic significance of the correct iteration of the Guerrillunns committee. ‘Each of our members will draw on their different creative backgrounds and personal perspectives to put into words, imagery or other medium an expression of what art means to ourselves and the broader scope. Ultimately this may present as a base for the purpose of the Guerrillunns now and in the future, to highlight the presence and relevance of the arts in the locality.’ Pádraig Harrington
