The previously scheduled topic for this Sunday’s Session has been changed.
Our session with Clodagh Mac Donagh will now take place in April. Instead, we will dedicate this Sunday’s Session to our members’ behind-the-scenes experience creating the pieces for our exhibition, Symbols of Ireland.
Behind the Scenes
First Lady Sabina Higgins opened our exhibition to the public on Sunday, March 2nd, drawing admiration and enthusiasm from approximately 375 visitors. While the finished pieces showcased our members’ remarkable talents and creativity, we know each artist had their own ‘Creative Journey’ to make their piece.
This Sunday, we invite members to bring their samples, sketches or resists that helped them make their exhibited pieces. We would love to hear about the creative challenges you encountered—whether it was perfecting a technique, sourcing materials, or reworking an idea.
We also warmly welcome members who could not submit a piece for the exhibition—whether due to time constraints or works that did not fit within the exhibition guidelines. Your creative journey is equally valuable, and we’d love to hear about your experiences.
To ensure everyone has the opportunity to share, each member will have a limited time to present their work and reflections.
