Dust in the air suspended
Dust in the air suspended is an exhibition of works from the collections of the Arts Council of Ireland and the Irish Museum of Modern Art, presented by South Tipperary County Council’s Arts Service at the South Tipperary County Museum. The exhibition brings together an exploration of both the physical and metaphysical understanding of suspension and the tensions that arise from the state of being suspended or in suspense. This collaborative project between the Arts Council, the Irish Museum of Modern Art’s National Programme and South Tipperary County Council’s Art Service, brings together for the first time in one exhibition, works from two national collections. Artists in the exhibition include; Dorothy Cross, Gary Coyle, Antony Gormley, Ilya Kabakov , Alice Maher, Fergus Martin, Austin McQuinn, Isabel Nolan, Jesús-Raphael Soto. The exhibition will be accompanied by a full colour catalogue and an education programme will form part of the programme.

Bealtaine
The Arts Services of South and North Tipperary County Council together with Tipperary Library Service run an annual festival Bealtaine, celebrating creativity in older age. Bealtaine is a National Programme run throughout May each year in association with Age and
The theme for the National Bealtaine Programme 2009 was taken from the poem The Door,
by Miroslav Holub : ‘Go and open the door’ ‘ and is described by Age and Opportunity as an invitation ‘to try something new, to explore something creative this Bealtaine in recognition of the life enhancing joys of constant learning and our capacity for creativity at all stages of our lives.’
In the spirit of this we encouraged people to try new art forms, and to try something they may have never done before. Events ranged from poetry reading to music-making, from stone-carving to jewellery making and from film to visual arts and we hoped that by the end of the festival you might have had a chance to discover new skills and talents in the arts.

We focus on the quality of movement and physical awareness (developing body perception, space awareness, finding musicality of movement). Our dance, while physical, develops the exploration and respect of your own capacity and limits.
