Kinsale Arts Week 2009 - Ballinspittle - 11th - 19th July This year’s exhibition, part of the Minibus Artist’s “West Trail” from Kinsale, involves 30 participants and a wide range of Art & Craft including 2D work in various media, a selection of gemstone, beaded and fused-glass jewellery, hand-made candles, stained glass and pyrography.
The Artists will be present throughout the week, enabling visitors to meet and discuss any items of interest. There will be various special events throughout the week including a painting demonstration by Patrick O’Dwyer.
The exhibition will feature the preview of a collaborative project by Fiona Calnan, Noreen O’Callaghan and Mundo Capoeira: Small Step Big Leap – a visual study of Capoeira from the inside out. It is an exciting work-in-progress which explores this dynamic martial art through drawing, photography and performance. The 2D work will be on display throughout the course of the exhibition while a Capoeira Demonstration will take place on Sunday 12th July during the official opening.
The exhibition is open from 10am to 8pm every day except for Sunday 19th when it closes at 4pm. There is ample free parking at Ballinspittle Community Hall.

Innishannon Art & Craft Market - November 2008 This was a great chance to do your Christmas Shopping early and beat the rush. Special mulled wine & mince pies reception on Friday 28th November - then open all day Saturday and Sunday - it was great to see all of you there!
For those of you who missed the Market - here’s a write-up from the Southern Star.
Kinsale Arts Week - Ballinspittle - July 2008 Our first ever group exhibition - which was a resounding success. Said by some to be the best display in the whole of the Kinsale Arts Week - but we’re far too modest to admit to it! The opening party was such a success that we had another one - half-way through the week. We fully intend to repeat the whole event as part of KAW 2009..
