This Must Be The Place/The Great Island at Sirius Arts Centre

This Must Be The Place/The Great Island 26th January – 26th February

This project considers the role of a regional arts centre, by presenting an event every single day for five weeks. These will take place in a make-shift, cafe style setting which aims to create an active social space within the arts centre. Many events are free and will invite the wider community to drop in and participate. On any given day you can learn how to make a musical instrument or use an SLR camera, listen to records, drink a coffee, hear about the history of the Old Yacht Club or about how to build a boat.

For the duration of This Must Be The Place, Sirius Arts Centre is delighted to collaborate with The Golden Bean, an artisan coffee roastery based in Shanagarry, Cork. The Golden Bean Cafe @ Sirius will be open every day between 10am-5pm.
