Here is our Cavan Arts Website listing - along with some other great local events. I love living in Cavan! There's always something great to do if you're bored with general going out-pub,movies,nightclub,dinner etc. It's not a place you can feel bored or underwhelmed in, honestly I am happier here than when I lived in the capital. Plenty of scope to get involved in the Arts in Cavan too, if you are creative & interested, or interesting!

It was a lovely night. Myself and Stuart enjoyed it. Stopped by the Moth quickly with Freda on the way home, was a little shy of inflicting a five minute portrait created by moi on anyone though, so waited until I got home then drew the life parter.

The Moth Studio artists will be drawing a crowd, producing 5-minute portraits of the townsfolk of Cavan on the evening of 21st September. There will also be an exhibition of the Moth Studio artists’ work.

I got to invigilate for it over the weekend, it was lovely to see someone stand in front of my paintings and exclaim how much they liked them-with me incognito (hiding behind a painting book), got a real appreciation for how much my art is enjoyed.
