As part of National Culture Night 2019, a special event was organized in the Seanscoil, Ceathrú Thaidhg in Erris when artist Gareth Kennedy gave a presentation on a project developed over the last two years on the Dún Chaocháin Peninsula. This grew out of a commission to mark the 25th anniversary of the Tír Sáile Sculpture Trail, which was part of the Mayo 5000 celebrations back in 1993.

Roscommon Arts Centre is delighted to present Bernadette by Turner Prize winner Duncan Campbell. One of a trilogy of films, it focuses on female Irish dissident and political activist Bernadette Devlin. In 1969 she became the youngest woman ever elected to the British Parliament and she personified the young radical Catholics of Northern Ireland at the onset of the modern Troubles. Campbell’s film works with archive footage and writings about her in an effort to do justice to her legacy. The exhibition runs until January 13.
