Rosslea
The overarching aim for Sliabh Beagh Arts is the development and implementation
of a series of community Arts programmes which address the social, creative,
economic, cultural, environmental and good relations needs within the area. We
are dedicated to providing high quality arts activity, promoting the use of
creativeness as a means of enriching the lives of the rural communities
involved. Our programs aim to promote the importance of our physical and
personal environment, looking to the rural for inspiration and exploring the
culture in AgriCULTURE. All of our projects are innovative and we try to bring
something special to the area every year. Grafitti Bales We took the mundane and
brought some colour and brightness to the plain old stacks Gate weaves
Gateweaves These gate weaves were created by several different communities who
worked together during dark evenings Painting With Light Painting With Light
Working with several different artists the task of running through dark places
at night became a creative pleasure Mini Worlds Mini Worlds Seeing quality in
the everyday local objects, local photographer Max Carnson brought this project
to life Storytelling Through Song We have searched through our library of song
to tell stories that are educational to hear. Shadow puppetry 2013 Our First
"Show" was a shadow puppetry event in the woods, with choirs and bands Sliabh
