Wednesday evening, 16th April saw the opening of an exhibition in Clonmel Library of some of the art work achieved by an adult class from South Tipperary Arts Centre (STAC).


The work of eight students is on display and are available to view during library hours until 26th April. This is the first time the Friday morning class has exhibited its paintings and was encouraged to do so by the staff of STAC, especially the late Eimear King who died suddenly just a year ago.

The artists have dedicated the exhibition to Eimear’s memory.

Mairead Sullivan, Artists Margaret Sullivan, Pauline Humphreys and Mary Sullivan were all smiles while posing for this photograph at the exhibition launch.

In opening the exhibition Helena Tobin, Artistic Director of STAC, commented on the development of the work of students over the last number of years under the tutelage of Tony Crosse.

Artist Noreen Grant deep in discussion with Helena Tobin at the art exhibition.

She also said that the STAC staff looked forward to the arrival of the Friday class members as they were such a positive group who enjoyed the classes, and they could hear the fun they had while they worked.

The exhibition launch was a great success prompting great discussion among the attendance.

The exhibit runs until Saturday, 26th April.

Most of the paintings are for sale but hurry, as they are selling quickly.
