Allihies celebrating 100 years

 

 Allihies Copper Mine Museum

A R T   A L L I H I E S

West Cork and the Beara Peninsula have become synonymous with artistic activity and the Allihies region is no exception. The ever changing mood of this powerful landscape with its rugged terrain and bare rock standing defiantly against the power of the Atlantic Ocean has been a source of inspiration for very many artists who have been drawn to the area to live and work and contribute to the vitality of the community.

In recognition of this, Allihies Copper Mine Museum is presently presenting a series of exhibitions under the heading ART ALLIHIES from June through September. The programme consists of six two-person exhibitions featuring painting and sculpture and displaying a diverse range of approaches.

 

June 5th - June 22nd  Jenny Richardson  +  Nealie O Sullivan

June 26th – July 13th  Barbara Nolan  +  Alex Scade.

July 17th – August 3rd  Anne Wilson  +  Tim Goulding

August 7th – August 24th  Rachel Parry  +  Bill Griffin.

August 28th – September 14th  Nadette Charlet  +  Charles Tyrrell.

September 18th – October 5th  Finola Cooney  +  Cormac Boydell
