The Arts Office is delighted to present two solo exhibitions of new work from artists Denis Kelly and Ben Readman. Denis Kelly’s exhibition Edge incorporates a series of abstract paintings which draw inspiration from dlr LexIcon and its proximity to the sea. Ben Readman’s new body of work entitled Circadian is made up of a collection of intimate two-dimensional artworks that use a number of traditional techniques and materials.

Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council is delighted to announce that it has awarded 19 Arts Grants through the 2016 grants scheme. These grants will encourage and enable the creation of new projects, events or educational opportunities such as exhibitions, performances and school workshops; all of which will be showcased or celebrated in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown. The grants will also support artists’ career development.

Additionally, 4 grants were awarded under Arts Access Grants. These grants support areas of greatest need where a gap has been identified in the provision of artistic expression within communities, for example our local youth projects and active retirement groups. Arts Access Grants are supported by the Department of Children and Youth Affairs.
