The Guesthouse Project presents local artists or collaborative groups with an opportunity to develop their work in the context of the Guesthouse Shandon. The initiative facilitates experimentation that tests out new approaches to artistic practice. We invite artists to find a new way of imagining, activating and utilising The Guesthouse building.
We are interested in artists transdisciplinary practitioners that have both solo and interdisciplinary practice and enjoy collaborating.
