Creative Places, Edenderry are delighted to be awarded Creative Ireland community project funding for Eden Fresco – an exploration of Edenderry’s rich heritage through innovative multidisciplinary art partnerships between artists & local community groups.
Eden Fresco will culminate in a large collaborative visual art piece representing each of the partnerships and mapping the work that will have taken place. Artists and community groups will be given themes and paired together to complement each other and to have a shared learning process. Each partnership will be required to facilitate four workshops with the community groups they have been matched with. Within the workshops they will explore the set theme and come up with something visual, audio or written to add to the ‘map’ – it will be up to the artists and community groups to decide which medium to present their piece through.
These workshops will take place between April and September 2025 and the project will be a unique opportunity for the Community in Edenderry to collaborate to create a large piece of visual art with meaning for all involved, celebrating Edenderry heritage.
