“Denouement is a beautiful, heartfelt and quintessentially Irish drama — one that bathes its audience in apocalyptic darkness even as it inspires us to keep striving forward.” Brilliant review
Every artist faces rejection — it’s part of the work. But what if disappointment could become a creative resource instead of a roadblock?
Join Dr. Annette Clancy from University College Dublin on 27th November for a free, two-hour workshop to unpack how setbacks shape your practice, and learn practical tools for turning frustration into fuel. You’ll leave with renewed perspective, resilience, and strategies to keep your artistic vision alive through the ups and downs.
Part of the Self-Care for Individual Artists Workshops, funded by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and the National Lottery, in partnership with the Baring Foundation.
