Youth Networking Day

 

Red Bird Youth Collective invites you to join them for a Youth Networking Day at Galway Arts Centre, all are welcome!

The day will comprise of several workshops from former and current Red Birds focusing on creative writing and visual art. The group will also showcase their recent project, Let Go. They have been working in collaboration with poet Colm Keegan and visual artist (and former Red Bird) Gabrielle Drimalovski. The aim was to create a video piece where poetry, moving image and sound work together to create one ambitious, original artwork. Generously funded by the Arts Council of Ireland’s Youth Ensemble Scheme, the evening will end with the Orbit Open Mic event from 7-10pm.

Red Bird Youth Collective is a visual arts organisation for ages 15-24. A group of like-minded young people from different backgrounds come together to collaborate on engaging and challenging art projects, and have worked with professional artists on visual art, film, architecture and performance projects. They also engage with other aspects of the arts such as administration, curation, and event organisation. Red Bird is an ideal outside-of-school pursuit for students interested in self-led art projects, writing, music and other artforms.
