A work that will be showcased at the SEA Art Exhibition

Tramore will be hosting two seperate arts events in the coming weeks; a vibrant collection of artwork from local artists at Church Road Hall, and a thrilling play featuring award-winning actors at the Coastguard Cultural Centre.

Art exhibition 

The SEA Art Group has announced its summer exhibition, taking place from Friday, May 29, to Monday, June 1, at Church Road Hall, Tramore.

Opening with a launch evening on Friday at 7pm, the exhibition will continue daily across the Bank Holiday weekend, welcoming visitors to enjoy a vibrant collection of original artwork created by local artists.

The SEA Art Group has gone from strength to strength over the past year, with growing membership bringing fresh energy and new talent into the group. 

This year’s exhibition promises a diverse and engaging showcase, featuring paintings in oils, acrylics, watercolours and mixed media.

Much of the work on display draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Tramore and the Copper Coast, capturing the ever-changing light, landscape and atmosphere of the area.

Meeting weekly in Tramore, the SEA Art Group provides a welcoming and supportive environment for artists of all levels to develop their skills, share ideas, and exhibit their work. 

All artwork will be available for purchase, offering an opportunity to support local artists and acquire unique, original pieces.

Theatre

Stagemad Theatre Company is proud to present 'Confinement', by Roisín Hackett Nolan. 

This gripping stage play goes on stage at The Coastguard Cultural Centre, Tramore this weekend, May 22 to May 24, at 8pm. 

The play is brought to life by two exceptional, award-winning actors: Lauren Cardiff and Clodagh Kenny. 

Two women, one tiny flat, and a world that’s closing in around them. Starved of freedom, tormented by the neighbour from hell, their thoughts begin to twist, tighten, and turn against them. 

What starts as irritation becomes paranoia. What begins as a bad day becomes a bad decision. And soon, the smallest crack threatens to explode. 

Confinement is described as tense, darkly funny and gripping, telling the claustrophobic story of two women pushed right to the edge. 

Tickets are available at gr8events.ie
