Cruinniú na nÓg children's exhibition launched at Luan Gallery

Published:

Children were welcomed to the Luan Gallery on Saturday, June 17 to see their art on display in the Boardwalk Gallery. This exhibition marks the artistic accomplishments of the children who participated in this year’s Cruinniú na nÓg national event.

These artistic children were given a tour of the current exhibition ‘PORTALS’, by curator Aoife Banks, before exploring their creativity with Varvara Vorobei's children's visual arts workshop, Dreamcrafting. This event was supported by Westmeath Arts Office and Creative Ireland.

Curated by Aoife Banks, PORTALS is a group exhibition that delves into playful dreamscapes and journeys across fictional realms. Through sculpture, installation, film, mixed media, and paint, the artists featured in this exhibition offer pathways into speculative fictions and alternate worlds. 'PORTALS' embraces the potentiality of technology, fantasy, and the unconscious mind in providing us with portals of escape from the ominous realities of our inner and outer worlds.

The exhibition will run until Sunday, June 25 and is supported by The Arts Council.
