Collaborative Practice Workshop

With artists Marie Brett, Kate Wilson and Naomi Draper

 There are a growing number of opportunities for artists to work collaboratively. These include ongoing residencies in schools and community groups, realising a project in a healthcare setting, working within a company or collaborations  with other artists. These programmes are often supported by Local Authority Arts Offices, the Arts Council, as well as a number of different agencies through schemes like Artists in the Community, Artist in Schools, and Arts and Health. More recently Creative Ireland with its emphasis on community, youth and children create even more opportunities for artists and creative practitioners to work in exciting new contexts.

Working collaboratively can be very enriching to your professional artistic practice but it can also be challenging. In this practical workshop we will explore some exciting artistic collaborative projects while asking the questions what is collaborative and socially engaged practice; how does it relate to other parts of my practice; how can I develop my skills and capacity to work collaboratively; as well as hints and tips on how to generate interesting ideas and manage your project.

The workshop will consist of presentations, group exercises and discussions. It is aimed at both emerging and established visual artists, writers, musicians, theatre producers and any creative practitioners who are currently working or interested in working in collaborative and socially engaged arts. As part of the workshop we will also look at what opportunities exist in Leitrim and beyond for working collaboratively.

The workshop will be facilitated by artists Marie Brett, Naomi Draper and Kate Wilson.

Date: Thursday October 5th

Time: 10.30 Registration, 11am – 4pm
