SAMHAIN @ SULT (Kildare): “Mantles” Public reading 24 Nov 21

I was delighted Sult Artists invited me to read from Mantles on 24th November at 7pm in SULT Gallery in Boland’s, Market Square, Kildare Town,  R51V267.

Join me for the first public reading from Mantles: Encountering Brigid published by Arlen House (cover painting by Margo McNulty) and for live music from Kildare musician James Blennerhasset. And of course, come for the wonderful art by the Kildare Collective of artists – Sult.

To book your place, RSVP to sultartists@gmail.com, including your telephone number.

This is the first of a series of readings to mark the publication of Mantles. This book is the third and final part of the Creative Ireland funded (Kildare County Council and Roscommon County Council) collaboration with artist Margo McNulty.

The Joys of Festivals: Readers, Writers and Artists

Duality was launched at Kildare Community Library on Friday, 11th October as part of The Kildare Readers Festival.

It was a great night with a warm introduction by Celine Broughal and a moving launch speech by Lucina Russell (Arts Officer County Kildare). The hard work in creating and collaborating melts away when artists and readers find joy and meaning in the work.

In conversation

The audience questions were engaging and thought-provoking and provided great discussion.

Thank you to all who came along on the night, participated and supported us. We are very grateful. We are looking forward to further readings and exhibitions of the art work over the coming months and into 2020 – more details soon!
