Are you ready for Culture Night 2020?!?!

Artists of Mayo, Culture Night 2020 at the Linenhall Arts Centre

'Artists of Mayo' is an online Open Mic taking place on Friday 18 September. A full-day, choc-a-bloc extravaganza celebrating the very best that Mayo has to offer!

The Linenhall Arts Centre is inviting Mayo artists of all disciplines to submit a video recording of their work (1-3 minutes duration) to be shared across our social media platforms. And you will be sharing the (online!) stage with some of Mayo's finest artists including John Butler (Music), Catherine Donnelly (Dance), Frances Macken (Literature), Elaine Mears (Theatre), Astrid Ní Mhongáin (Song), Conor O Grady (Visual Artist) and Ger Staunton (Comedy

So you can sing a song, play a tune, dance a jig, present an artwork, tell us a joke (or a story!), or read from your favourite piece of literature! This is open to artists across all artforms of music, theatre, dance, visual arts, comedy and literature. As we always like to say - we like to think of this as an online open mic of sorts without the fear of public speaking!!!

Please send your videos via WeTransfer to Bernie at director@thelinenhall.com by Fri 4 Sept at 5pm. Please note that depending on the volume of submissions we may not be able to share all the work on the day itself.
