Opening night on the 31st of July, the traditional beginning of Lughnasadh, with ancient victuals, uplifting music & epicurean celebrations against the backdrop of contemporary visual art.

Exhibition to remain in place for people to visit until the following weekend with talks, workshops & café culture gatherings throughout the week.
