Cork County Council’s Arts Service is inviting schools to apply to participate in Frameworks, a classroom-based education programme. Four Primary schools in County Cork will become temporary custodians of our county art collection and will engage in a programme that will be facilitated by a professional artist.

Cork County Council has a substantial collection of visual art. This civic collection includes works in various media including painting, drawing, print, photography, video, and small-scale three-dimensional work created by emerging and established artists, many of whom are living and working in Cork County.

Students will have an opportunity to create a collaborative artwork with an artist, using the collection artworks as a springboard for creativity. The ambition is that the works from the collection and along with works created by pupils in response will be presented by the participating schools as part of an event for parents and families.

Please note that the details of events listed above are provided by the relevant Local Authorities.
