SUMMARY:Draw it in Irish & Lucie Arnoux
DESCRIPTION:As part of The Galway Cartoon Festival\, an exhibition of cartoons in Irish will take place in Áras Éanna between the 6 October and the 6 November 2025. This is the sixth annual exhibition of Draw it in Irish\, and it will be launched in Áras Éanna.

We hope that the exhibition will be interesting\, inspirational – and above all\, that it will be funny. \nAs well\, Lucie Arnoux the cartoon artist-in-residence in Áras Éanna for the end of September\, will also exhibit. Lucie is an illustrator and comic author whose work includes the autobiographical graphic novel Je Ne Sais Quoi\, and the series Enola Holmes. Also\, she was the artist for the tabletop RPG Stonetop. During her residency\, Lucie drew beautiful\, soulful picture of the countryside\, her experiences on the island\, and of nights out full of craic and music in the pubs and in the Áras. We are hoping that visitors and islanders alike will enjoy the exhibition. \nOpening at 18:30 in Áras Éanna Monday 6 October

Photograph by Clive Wasson\nWidespread access to the arts has always been a priority for both Údarás na Gaeltachta and Ealaín na Gaeltachta through the past four decades. \n“As a Gaeltacht community\, we are deeply indebted to our artists. Imagine a life without their vision\, without their dreams\,” says Rónán Mac Con Iomaire of Údarás na Gaeltachta. \n“They make the world aware of who we\, as a Gaeltacht community\, are and they also make us aware of who we are as a community. They nurture us as a community and\, as a community\, we are grateful for that. \n“This exhibition provides\, not only an insight into 40 years of Gaeltacht art\, but also an insight into 40 years of Údarás na Gaeltachta and forty years of the community spirit which demanded the establishment of Údarás na Gaeltachta. That spirit still remains.” \nEalaín na Gaeltachta promotes the development of the contemporary and the traditional arts in the Gaeltacht and has been joint venture between Údarás na Gaeltachta and the Arts Council since 1997. \nThe 40 artists whose work will be exhibited as part of Dath an Dóchais are: Áine Ní Chíobháin Alannah Robbins Andrew Duggan Aoife Casby Bernadette Cotter Bob Quinn Brendan O’ Sullivan Brian Bourke\nCaoimhghin Ó Fraithile Cathal McGinley Ceara Conway Ciara O’ Flynn Clare Langan Clare Cashman Danny Chóil Dan Ó Flatharta RIP Deirdre McKenna Donnacha Quilty Heidi Nguyen Helen Quill Ian Gordon Ian Joyce Katrina Quille Karol Mac Gairbheith Kevin McGee Lelia Ní Chathmhaoil Maria Simonds-Gooding Niall Naessens Nuala Ní Fhlathúin Róisín Ní Chionnfhaolaidh Sandra Landers Sarah Lewtas Pádraic Reaney Patsy Dan Rodgers RIP Ruairí Rodgers Seán Cathal Ó Coileáin Seán Ó Flaithearta\nTadhg McSweeney RIP Tomás Ó Cíobháin Úna Ní Shé Úna Quigley. \n \n \nCathal McGinley.

SUMMARY:Michael Mulcahy
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition featuring the first ever artist in residence at Áras Éanna\, Michael Mulcahy\, will open at the arts centre on Friday\, July 8 (8pm). \nMick Mulcahy is one of Ireland’s most famous expressionist artists and showcased his work to the people of Inis Oirr after spending a winter on the island in the late 1980s. From there\, the idea to create an arts centre on our small Gaeltacht island took hold. \nMick recently spent a month in our studio at Áras Éanna (February 2022) after returning to Inis Oirr for our 21st birthday celebrations in July 2021. \nMany visitors to the island saw him produce stunning paintings outdoors\, next to the island’s shop\, last summer. \nHe is a member of Aosdana\, the highest honour given to Irish artists\, and we are delighted to welcome Mick back to Inis Oirr to feature an exhibition of his acclaimed art work at the arts centre this summer. \nHis exhibition of new paintings at Áras Éanna is entitled Nowhere to Hide at Sea.
