Dominican Collective exhibition opens at Flowerfield Arts Centre

Thu, January 10, 2019

The Dominican Collective Exhibition is now open at Flowerfield Arts Centre in Portstewart.

The display features collaborative work from GCSE students at Dominican College, renowned ceramicist Adam Frew and potter Fiona Shannon.

The project forms part of the students’ GCSE research, where they got to experience how galleries and art centres operate, work alongside professional artists and learn about marketing and installation techniques.

The Mayor of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council Councillor Brenda Chivers said: “This is a beautiful exhibition showcasing the wealth of artistic talent from young school pupils. We are so fortunate to have art centres such as Flowerfield on our doorstep with fantastic facilities enabling programmes and courses like this to take place and providing practical learning opportunities. The exhibition continues until Friday 25th January and I would encourage everyone to view it for themselves.”
