TRALEE ART GROUP - SUMMER EXHIBITION
Tralee Art Group is a collective of local artists from the North Kerry area. The members are involved in a range of activities that include art workshops, art history lectures and life drawing classes. Committed to the development of members’ work, the group is one of the most active and progressive in the country. Each year Tralee Art Group organises a number of exhibitions of members’ work. The Summer Exhibition is held in the GALLERY at Siamsa Tíre and it is a good opportunity to see the latest work from this dynamic group of artists.

TRALEE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
ANNUAL SHOWCASE OF STUDENT WORK
To go to art college or not, that is the question that is condensed into a year of intense study in art, craft and design on the Post Leaving Certificate art course in Tralee Community College.
Wedged between second and third level education, between formal schooling and personal endeavour, the exhibition features a wide range of individuals who have explored what it means to make art. The Class of 2010 were: Terrie Burton, Stephanie Coffey, Elizabeth Dillon, Rachel Gallagher, Breda Galwey, Bridget Loughmore, Deirdre Moylan, Paul Moynihan, Vlora Neziri, Helen O'Dell, Miroslava Pavelkova, and Joshua Spinn.
13th to 20th of May 2010
Frame X
In association with Kerry Bike Festival and Club Headbangbang
On yer bike! Frame X was a celebration of the art of bicycling and the bicycle in art. Launched in 2009, the exhibition featured a wide range of artists whose work was connected in some way to the bicycle - as a theme or as an element of a work of art. Funny, bewildering and immensely entertaining, the exhibition was given an extended run due to popular demand. For the 2010 exhibition, the ClubHeadBangBang collective were back with another eclectic range of art as the GALLERY at Siamsa Tíre shifted gear and became the focal point of the 2010 Kerry Bike Festival.
