Moving Through and Around<\/strong><\/em>, a unique cross-border exhibition featuring the work of artists Helena Hamilton, Aoife McGrath, Sorca McGrath<\/strong>, and Simon Mills<\/strong>, alongside eight exceptional dancers from across the rural border regions of Cavan, Fermanagh-Omagh, and Monaghan:<\/p>\n

Ruth Clarke, Marion Crowe, Jamie Fagan, Jessie Keenan, Tina McGurren, Rebeca Sanchez, Aysha Treanor<\/strong>, and Dylan Quinn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

From Sean-N\u00f3s and set dancing to hip-hop, Flamenco, jiving, line dancing, Scottish Country, and contemporary styles, the exhibition celebrates the personal, cultural, and intergenerational stories that dance carries across our communities.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Visitors are invited to engage with the exhibition not just as observers, but as participants, joining the dance through visual, sonic, and choreographic encounters with the rhythms and movements that define our rural border region.<\/p>\n

Dance Connects<\/strong><\/p>\n

This exhibition is part of Dance Connects<\/strong><\/a> in Rural Border Regions, a Creative Ireland funded initiative under the Creative Communities on a Shared Island scheme (2023\u20132027). The project brings together the local authorities of Cavan, Monaghan, and Fermanagh-Omagh, working with diverse dance practitioners and researchers Professor Aoife McGrath (QUB) and Dr. Victoria Durrer (UCD).<\/p>\n

Building on the success of the Sites of Significance pilot (2023), this project uses a creative, research-led approach to foster sustainable cross-border collaboration and support the unique dance ecology of our rural communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":36363,"template":"","class_list":["post-36362","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nDance Connects Exhibition - Moving Through and Around - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Moving Through and Around, a unique cross-border exhibition featuring the work of artists Helena Hamilton, Aoife McGrath, Sorca McGrath, and Simon Mills, alongside eight exceptional dancers from across the rural border regions of Cavan, Fermanagh-Omagh, and Monaghan:Ruth Clarke, Marion Crowe, Jamie Fagan, Jessie Keenan, Tina McGurren, Rebeca Sanchez, Aysha Treanor, and Dylan Quinn.\" \/>\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\/dance-connects-exhibition-moving-through-and-around\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dance Connects Exhibition - Moving Through and Around - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Moving Through and Around, a unique cross-border exhibition featuring the work of artists Helena Hamilton, Aoife McGrath, Sorca McGrath, and Simon Mills, alongside eight exceptional dancers from across the rural border regions of Cavan, Fermanagh-Omagh, and Monaghan: Ruth Clarke, Marion Crowe, Jamie Fagan, Jessie Keenan, Tina McGurren, Rebeca Sanchez, Aysha Treanor, and Dylan Quinn.
