Opposite ends of the Spectrum - Wexford Arts Centre

Wexford Arts Centre, Wexford, Co Wexford
Art Alongside aims to provide a dynamic experience of the visual arts to children and adults in Co Wexford. Each year, the Art Alongside artists explore a specific theme in their work with primary school children. The current project is based on the theme of opposites and includes work by Stephen Balkenhol, Ilya Kabakov, John Kindness and Janet Mullarney. Children from eight Co Wexford primary schools have been involved in a range of projects connected to the theme. A selection of this work will be exhibited in the Wexford Arts Centre alongside works from the IMMA Collection on the same theme. IMMA staff will facilitate workshops in response to the exhibition.
