Irish Language Artist Residency
Irish Language Artist Residency/Cónaitheacht d’ealaíontóirí Gaelach
The Gyréum, Castlebaldwin, Co Sligo
The Gyreum is a round wooden hilltop "arts fortress," "acoustic perfect" with easy access to inspiration.
This suits sculptors, painters, ceramicists, composers, song writers, choreographers, calligraphers, dramatists + actors, puppeteers, poets, prose writers, film directors, editors, academics and architects. There are two well lit spaces for painting etc. There are five rooms that can be used as single/ double or triple usage. As a workshop accommodation space we can roof 25 people.
For 2012, the arts residencies are during the weekdays, arrive Sunday depart Friday afternoon but interested Artists can inquire if it is possible to also stay over certain weekends. Across 2012 weekends are predominantly for mostly Irish language workshops. We encourage the idea that a core group from a similar medium might put together a workshop concurring with their arts residency. Also keep an eye out on our website to see if our scheduled workshops interest you.
Cost of Arts Residency is €30 per day with all meals covered, €150 per five day week.
A team of two or more or couple who can share a room would be €25 per day each. €125 per week.
