The Galway Arts Centre will hold a study day for students taking art history and appreciation in the Leaving Cert on Friday March 11, from 9am to 3pm at the Nuns Island Theatre.
The study day is intended as an intensive revision course, not an introduction to the topics covered in the Leaving Cert syllabus. It will take the form of two concise lectures which cover art in Ireland from pre-Christian to modern times, and European Art from 1000 AD to today. There will be a visit to Galway Arts Centre where the focus will be on art appreciation and exhibition layout and design, covering the ‘Visit to an Art Gallery’ section of the exam.
Spaces are limited and early booking is advised. The price per student is €3 and relevant handouts for each theme, designed in conjunction with The National Gallery of Ireland, will also be provided. To book contact [email protected] or call 091 - 565886. See also www.galwayartscentre.ie
