Kinsale Arts Week begins!
The opening of Kinsale Arts Week took place at the weekend in Charlesfort. Gathered on the green, we heard Cuban music (a theme of the festival) and hard the official speeches, took in the beauty of our surroundings and checked out the installation at the fort. By English artist Anya Gallacio, it's called 'If I was a painter, but then again, no' - and it involves coloured perspex pieces in the gaping windows of the building. When the sun hits them it results in some lovely hues beng cast around. The sun shone briefly for us which was a bit of a miracle... and how lovely Kinsale looks on a day like that!
Anyway there's loads to see and do between now and July 20th - comedy, music, workshops, art, discussion, cinema etc.... so check it out and enjoy! www.kinsaleartsweek.com
