Call for Expressions of Interest for Participation in Culture Night 2016

Culture Night

Carlow County Council Arts Office is delighted to announce its participation in Culture Night 2016. Carlow Arts Office will host a Cultural Trail of highly accessible, free of charge, family friendly events and we are now looking for artists, arts, crafts, music and cultural groups, communities, public spaces, schools and clubs to get involved. Culture Night 2016 takes place FRIDAY 16th SEPTEMBER 2016.

We want to make the programme of events for Carlow’s Culture Night 2016 an eclectic and rich cultural offering, open to all and free of charge. By becoming part of the Carlow Culture Night Cultural Trail participants will be able to share ideas, access new audiences and showcase what they do to a wider section of the community in Carlow. Carlow Culture Night Cultural Trail is open to all art forms and will included a  diverse programme of performances, events and exhibitions available to the public and will run  from 5pm on Friday 16th September throughout the evening as a time tabled trail of events. We are paying particular attention to the scheduling of Culture Night events to try to avoid overlap which may reduce audiences for all so we would ask you to be flexible in your proposed event time. We are also keen to have organisations promote and support events in their area so please feel free to coordinate with other organisations in your area to provide the best experience possible.
