Anyone in or near Castlerea?


Arising from the development of Castlerea Sewerage Scheme, Roscommon County Council invites submissions from artists for the creation of new work in visual art, literature, and architecture/urban design as part of this commission.

This competition will be conducted in two stages. For Stage 1, artists are invited to apply for one of three short-term Artist in Residence projects, one in Visual Art, one in Literature and one in Architecture/Urban Design. These projects will take the place of the traditional Stage 1 application process, but are to be considered comprehensive standalone short residencies in themselves similar to Roscommon County Council’s Art@work programme.

Following the successful completion of these residencies, one of the three artists selected will be invited to devise a longer term project for Castlerea. A detailed Project Brief is available online from here.

Deadline: 10 September 2009
