For Culture Night, Friday 22 September, we will be encouraging everyone to attend one of the many events around the county. 

 Newbridge Local History Group teamed up with The Creative Well in the Riverbank to curate a unique art exhibition.

                                         “Second Harvest”

                                    Friday 25th August – Friday 15nd September 2017

                              “Second Harvest” is an artistic harvest gleaned from unique habitats.

                               This exhibition is a glimpse at how local Kildare artists,

                      in their artistic harvest of the bog,

                      have found inspiration to explore their sense of place,

                      their relationship with nature

                      and with the environment that sustains us.

                                  The five painters and three sculptors contributing to this exhibition are:

                                  Monica de Bath; Eamonn Keenan; Pamela de Bri;                                                                  

                                  Conor Lane; Fiona Marron; Brian O’Loughlin;

                                  Eileen Keane and Annette McCormack.
