N I P U CULTURE WRAP FRI 20 SEP CULTURENIGHT.IE KILDARE 2019 This year Culture Night Kildare celebrates its 10th anniversary! It’s a great achievement for Kildare County Council and above all for the groups, venues, artists and organisations that have contributed, through the last decade, to make Culture Night an annual opportunity to explore the rich cultural resources in our county. Since the beginning, local communities have been the heart and soul of Kildare Culture Night and we would like to celebrate this through three very special, community projects to get you ready for a night of wonder, fun and discoveries. Our Local Ambassador, Margaret Becker, has been immersed in the arts scene in Kildare for many years, as stained - glass artist and printmaker and founder of the Leinster Printmaking Studio in Clane in 1998. On Friday 20th September she invites you to celebrate culture; with over 70 FREE events to Wrap You Up In Culture! SPECIAL COMMUNITY PROJECTS In Ardclough Village a number of local groups will come WELCOME together in the weeks prior to Culture Night to develop a showcase of the talents and skills the village has to offer. Facilitated and supported by Ardclough Community Council, Ardclough Drama Group, Ardclough Youth Theatre, Ardclough GAA Club and St. Annes Choir will create a window display and an after mass “pop up” performance that will introduce you to The Culture Night programme. Culture Night Photo Booth. Realised by members of McAuley Place and artist Cathy O’Brien in the weeks prior to Culture Night, a special Photo Booth will travel from venue to venue on the night, to get you in the picture and make you part of this fantastic night. With ceramic as the primary medium, artist Marta Golubowska and members of Irish Wheelchair Association Athy will promote inclusiveness and equality through art. The exhibition displayed in Athy Library for Culture Night will give you a glimpse of what you can expect on the night. CLOCHA RINCE KILCOCK EVENT LOCATIONS 1. CLOCHA RINCE 5 2. KILCOCK 5 3.
