Ireland is emerging from one of the most challenging economic crises in its existence but how has it affected our culture? Some suggest we have rediscovered a creative side that was suppressed by the economic boom; others that creativity inevitably flourishes in recession. As we approach the centenary of the 1916 Rising, is this a rare and remarkable moment in time at which we can really shape what Ireland’s culture will become and how it will be perceived for this and future generations?
Panel includes Eugene Downes (Chief Executive, Culture Ireland); Dylan Haskins (broadcaster, political and cultural activist); Sinead Gleeson (arts and culture journalist); Rowena Neville (Director of Marketing and PR, Business to Arts). Hosted by Naoise Nunn of Leviathan political cabaret and MindField Festival.
