Clear and well delivered.’ ‘I felt positive about having a room full of people giving up their time to make the industry better. It felt hopeful.’ ‘It was thought provoking and engaging. The use of scenarios was particularly effective.’ ‘Clear strategies to deal with bullying/toxic behaviour, a frank and forthright presentation, and very useful real-world examples to interrogate how I feel I would have responded in the past versus what I could do in the future.’ ‘Great to do it in person.

St. Mary's Holy Faith Secondary School Glasnevin proudly presents Popstars the 90s Musical Popstars is a high-energy musical packed with smash hits from the hyper-colored 1990's by artists such as Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, TLC, *NSYNC, Christina Aguilera, MC Hammer, and many more. The action takes place in a school in the 1990's where Mark is head over heels in love with his girlfriend, queen bee Shannon Van de Witt. When Shannon learns that pop-band impresario Simon Austin is the surprise judge at the State Talent Show, she dumps him for her chance at showbiz stardom. Mark rapidly goes from High School hero to High School zero. His garage band buddies rally around him and soon a plan for revenge is hatched to change their grunge band to a boy band and snatch the Talent Show title from Shannon’s Candy Girls . There’s just one small problem... the boys can’t dance. Mark enlists the help of the ultra-talented, new girl, Ella to help with their boy band make over and sparks soon fly. Can Mark get the girl, get the Grand Prize and get even with the scheming Shannon closing in? It’s anyone’s guess as the countdown to the Grand Finale begins. It’s sure to be one to remember. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parking available in St.Mary's staff carpark.

One of the most common questions that artists encounter when they approach the book form is: what is an artist's book? Are there limits to observe, or conditions that 'break' the idea of what is acceptable as a book? What should artists consider in terms of production, price and distribution methods when creating a work? Or should these factors play a part at all in the rebellious world of experimental book-making? This talk will look at how practical aspects of designing making, selling, and displaying an artist book are woven into the overall concept of the work. The National Irish Visual Arts Library (NIVAL) is an initiative of NCAD in partnership with the Arts Council of Ireland. Since 1997, NIVAL has become the foremost centre for the documentation of contemporary art and design in Ireland and holds arguably the largest public-access artist book collection in Ireland. Assistant Manager, Ruth Hallinan, has spent fifteen years working in Irish publishing. She was named as one of the 150 most influential people in publishing by The Bookseller in 2021 and 2022. Dublin Art Book Fair (DABF)is a centre for contemporary artist books offering unique artist publications and titles from creative, small and independent publishers, both Irish and international.

Join Ingrid Lyonsand visual artistsLiliane Puthod and Ella Bertilsson as they discuss the place of storytelling and the embodiment of fiction in their practice. As they reminisce with good stories, they explore how people share anecdotes for all sorts of reasons; to make each other laugh, to process life experiences, to reminisce. They explore how storytelling helps us find common ground, connects us with with universal tropes and creates a collective consciousness. The three speakers find common ground in the distillation of personal experience and weaving of narrative threads through their use of materials, symbolic analogy and mise en scène, and how these sensibilities are used to build of fictional worlds. Through this distillation and fictionalisation in their creative practices, they take fragments of life, thoughts, dreams, and desires to communicate a vision and mediate with the world of otherness through storytelling. Maybe you’ll be moved to share your favourite ice-breaker. An art and visual culture specialist, Ingrid Lyons writes for several leading art journals in Ireland as well as galleries, art institutions and artists. Through her fiddle playing, she uncovers the rich heritage of Irish creativity, poetry and oral storytelling, while remaining close to the exceptional fiddle players who have personally mentored her. Liliane Puthod works with sculpture, installation, drawings and site-specific interventions to investigate the archaeology of everyday consumables buried within commodified gestures, trades and times. She has just completed a major solo work, Beep Beep as part of Longest Way Round, Shortest Way Home, commissioned by Temple Bar Gallery + Studios for Dublin Port and supported by The Arts Council Project Award. Ella Bertilsson’s practice combines elements of sculpture, video, performance, drawing, painting, and sound into staged installations, as a form of enquiry into bizarre and quotidian experiences and events that shape our character and define our identity. Selected solo exhibitions include: The Horse, Dublin (2025); Ballina Art Centre, Mayo (2024); The Dock, Leitrim (2023-24); and The Complex, Dublin (2022). This event is part of the extended programme of Dublin Art Book Fair (DABF). A centre for contemporary artist books, DABF offers unique artist publications and titles from creative, small and independent publishers, both Irish and international.

Join DABF Guest Curator Adrian Duncan in Studio 6 for readings and a conversation about the recent work of poet and fabulist Nidhi Zak/Aria Eipe. Taking a selection of poems from her critically acclaimed collection Auguries of a Minor God, Adrian and Nidhi will consider these poems as not just containing narrative and sense, but also shape and form. Identifying particular words from the poetry, the talk will look at how words can perform as objects or hinges within each poem’s flux of meanings. The talk will be followed by a short Q&A. Nidhi Zak/Aria Eipe's first poetry collection Auguries of a Minor God, was published with Faber & Faber in 2021. A Next Generation Artist with the Arts Council of Ireland, she serves on the Expert Advisory Committee to Culture Ireland.

In these seven stories, Choi writes in a precise and unembellished style, to portrait the lives of young women in South Korea. The intimate is shown against sometimes a very complex political backdrop, but in a hopeful tone. In the title story, a friendship between an exchange student and her host sister follows them from adolescence to adulthood. In 'A Song from Afar', a young woman grapples with the death of her lover, travelling to Russia to search for information about the deceased. In 'Secret', the parents of a teacher killed in the Sewol ferry sinking hide the news of her death from her grandmother. Toji (토지) Book Club aims to explore Korean culture through novels and short stories to better understand the country's recent history, society dynamics and of course to enjoy the exceptional contemporary literature coming from South Korea.

Collaboratively produce a publication through the use of prompts, questionnaires, dialogue, and collage. To foreground the workshop, the editors of .pdf magazine will include discussion on what, if anything, ‘counterpublishing’ means and their experience making a digital magazine. They aim to emphasise the value of spontaneity, detritus, locality, and community in ‘print cultures’ during the process of collectively making the publication. The workshop will begin with a set of prompts to collectively generate the content of a volume using whatever WiFi connected device you have, while discussing together what intentions or contexts can be brought to a publication. The second half of the workshop will focus on the editing and design stages, practicing iterative critical and aesthetic approaches, implementing collective input. Participants will leave with a volume of .pdf magazine to which they have contributed from start to finish, and a renewed vigour for the DIY and experimental in publishing. While the editors of .pdf magazine will lead the workshop, they hope to also learn from what participants contribute, building on their own understanding of .pdf magazine and a potential DIY ethos. This is an adult workshop, no experience necessary. Access information: Approximate duration is 2 hours. Accessible to all skill levels (including basic English). The workshop will be held in a wheelchair accessible ground floor studio space. There is a semi-accessible bathroom. For further access information please contact Learning + Public Engagement Curator Órla Goodwin. .pdfis a digital magazine that publishes new art and writing.
