www.thesourceartscentre.ie The Source Arts Centre presents Walls: Street Art Project Thursday 29 June to Sunday 02 July SUMMER cAMp Time: 10am - 4pm Price: €90 With the introduction of street art/ graffiti into last year’s Youth Project, Sligo based artist, Cormac Cullinan is coming back to help create a new and exciting art space with our young people. Street art provides a means of expressing oneself artistically outside of the confines of an art gallery… it’s a statement that art belongs to all and should be public. This year you will learn some of the history of street art and put it into context. And, of course it would not be complete without creating a new street artwork in Thurles. Suitable for ages: 12-17 years The Source Arts Centre presents To Go North is to Go South SUMMER cAMp Tuesday 04 July to Saturday 08 July Time: 10am - 5pm Monday 10 July to Friday 14 July Price: €100 You think you might know your home town. Have you ever thought how it appears to a visitor or tourist? What are its secrets?  Where is its heart?  Now in its 11th year, the Source Summer Youth Project is our pioneering programme for young people in site specific design and performance practice. Creating a new type of tourist trail over the course of two weeks, this year’s project group, join together to create and take you on a tour of Thurles that will blow your mind! The programme is nurturing a new generation of diverse young artists interested in making work that responds to locality.
