Arts as gaeilge / New Contexts / Good sponsors
shortlisted (May 8, 2003)
Gaeltacht art site launched
A new website has been launched, dedicated to
artists (not just visual artists) in Gaeltacht areas. The stylish
design alone makes it worth a look. Click here.
Other Contexts
Majella Ní Chríocháin is
given as the contact name for ealaín na gaeltachta
mentioned above. She also turns up in another context, Contexts
to be precise. There she writes about the arts in the Gaeltacht
areas.
Volume 2 / Issue 1 of Contexts has just
appeared. It is published by creative activity for everyone, also
known as cafe.
The general thrust of Contexts, and cafe, is about accessing
the arts, at a community level. Enquire about the magazine by
