Celebrating the Next Generation of Artists
Student exhibitions are more than a chance to hang artwork on a gallery wall. They give students the opportunity to explore what makes their voice unique while encouraging critical thinking, problem-solving, and storytelling skills.
Each January, Dublin Arts Council invites students and their families to an opening reception for the exhibition. It’s a wonderful opportunity for students to be present to share their artwork with their families, peers, and community.
On view January 10 - February 27, 2026.
