Visitors to the beach will have the opportunity to learn about local flora ecosystems while enjoying the artistic creations inspired by them. This hands-on experience will foster a deeper connection to the natural environment and demonstrate how art can be used to promote environmental awareness.<\/p>\n<p>Artist Bernie Colhoun and Gallery Owner Noel Feeney along with the support of Enniscrone Tidy Towns &amp; Clean Coasts group propose a creative project called \u2018Coastal Connections\u2019 that combines community engagement, environmental stewardship, and artistic expression. This project came about through conversations with local visual artist Bernie Colhoun, Abhainn Studio owner Noel Feeney and Michael Breen Chairperson of Enniscrone Tidy Towns about how we could create a summer programme of activities for the local and visiting communities to our beach town over June, July and August.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":32362,"template":"","class_list":["post-32361","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Coastal Connections: Engaging Communities and Inspiring Change through Coastal art and awareness - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Proposed Project Activities &amp; Schedule:June:3 x Print Workshops and beach exhibition led by local visual artist Bernie Colhoun.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/coastal-connections-engaging-communities-and-inspiring-change-through-coastal-art-and-awareness\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Coastal Connections: Engaging Communities and Inspiring Change through Coastal art and awareness - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Proposed Project Activities &amp; Schedule:June:3 x Print Workshops and beach exhibition led by local visual artist Bernie Colhoun.
