More about the trip:

This unique art program will be open to participants with a desire to learn about the rich history, traditions, and culture of Ireland, and gives the opportunity for students to incorporate their experiences into their artwork. The program offers classes in a cross section of the arts, specifically Art History, Drawing, Painting, Watercolor, Digital Storytelling, Digital Photography and Art beyond the Classroom.

Charleville Castle is located in the centre of Ireland, bordering the town of Tullamore, near the Shannon River. The castle is situated in Ireland’s most ancient primordial oak woods, once the haunting grounds of Ireland’s druids. In the sixth century it was part of the ancient monastic site of Lynally, which itself was in the ancient Durrow monastic settlement.

The courses will include daily studio time for drawing and digital photography, or Art History lectures, workshops, and discussions. Side excursions will be offered to Clonmacnoise and other areas in the local countryside, which is rich with cultural and historical sites. The program will include guest lectures on regional heritage.

Participants will visit Dublin where they will be guided through Trinity College and view the ancient illuminated manuscript "The Book of Kells", and tour the magnificent architecture of Christ Church Cathedral. The course will continue in Tullamore, Ireland, where Charleville Castle will serve as a field base.
