Programme to expand arts accessibility for teenagers

An innovative programme aimed at expanding arts accessibility for young people takes place during November and December across south Tipperary and will include a workshop with chart-topping group Royseven.

Connex12 is involved in a number of short residencies, which form part of the European Interreg programme, and the aim of the Green and Blue Futures programme is to promote the local environmental and cultural assets, specifically along the River Suir.

Three projects will form part of a programme during Connex12, including Forever Now — a new film-making residency in Carrick-on-Suir. A short film will be devised and directed by Shane Dempsey, of the London-based Fragments Production Company, and edited by Zoe Chen.
