Student Season @BLOCK T

BLOCK T is currently inviting students from all third level colleges to submit proposals for exhibition for its first year of Student Season.

Student Season is a two month period in BLOCK T’s Visual Arts Programme which focuses on up and coming artists and cultural practitioners. Student Season encourages and supports the development of professional artmaking amongst young artists outside the college environment. Students will gain critical experience in exhibition making and will work with BLOCK

T’s curatorial team during the production of the show. Over the course of the season one student from each exhibition will be selected to partake in a group show curated by BLOCK T later in the year.

We are accepting proposals from student collectives, class groups and individuals.

Please send on your proposal via email to grace@blockt.ie
