Creative Arts Summer School (CASS)
Do you want to explore your creative interests and meet other like-minded people? Do you want to pursue a career in the creative industries in Ireland? Do you want to try out different creative art forms in colleges in Dublin, Cork and Sligo in an exploratory and fun way?
We are now a national programme and will hold the Creative Arts Summer School with our partners in ATU Sligo for those located in the North-West region of Ireland. We are also delighted to partner once again with MTU Crawford College of Art & Design and individuals located in the South of Ireland can apply for the CASS workshops held here.
Creative Arts Summer School 2024: Promoting access, inclusion and diversity in the creative arts in Ireland.
Watch a short video with highlights from last year's event.
In addition to creative arts workshops participants will also have the opportunity to take part in a number of talks and presentations from colleges including information on admissions, entry and portfolio requirements, grants, course options, student supports, creative arts career guidance and presentations from current access students.
The Creative Arts Summer School is FREE - all course materials and lunch will be provided.
