Open Call: Artists Residencies – 14 Henrietta Street

Published on by Feltmakers Ireland

The Dublin City Council Culture Company is seeking to appoint two Artists in Residence for 14 Henrietta Street. Museum – a social history museum of Dublin life.

They seek creative and collaborative individuals who share their belief in connecting people and communities through culture and conversation.

They are seeking two artists to develop a creative response to 14 Henrietta Street. This could focus, for example, on the building itself, our oral history collection, the museum artefacts, the visitor experience or the museum’s way of working. Previous artist responses and projects have included poetry, photography, theatre and music. The Museum would particularly welcome applications that focus on the unique quality of the museum and how stories are told and gathered. Much of the existing artist responses focus on the tenement era of the house, so applications which include other periods within the 300-year history of the house are of interest.

The deadline for submission of proposals is Monday, 22 July 2024.
