Catholic college opens new studio classroom

A leading third level Catholic college has opened a new studio classroom exhibition featuring art work produced by children from local primary schools.

The exhibition at Mary Immaculate College, Limerick features artwork from students of St Mary’s Primary School, Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School and Presentation Primary School.

The focus of the studio classroom was to promote innovative ways for artists, primary school teachers and pupils to engage and respond to art practice. 

Opening the exhibition, MIC President, Prof. Michael Hayes said “connecting the artists with the primary schools has demonstrated the use of virtual technology to connect studio and classroom where exciting collaborative arts practice evolved”.
