What's on in Waterford: Art exhibitions, live music, charity events and more
There are lots of great events coming up in Waterford
Outlandish is a meditation on the role of nature in the built environment, where the artist looks closely at his immediate surroundings to see how nature is both marginalised and idealised in the way we design and shape our cities, considering the city on the levels of community, wildlife habitat, archaeological site, and multinational corporate headquarters.
Owen de Forge is a visual artist living and working in Dublin, working across painting, sculpture, drawing, and photography.
The exhibition is free to attend.
During this four-day band experience, a collaboration between Music Generation Waterford and Theatre Royal, young musicians will be divided into bands and will have the opportunities to jam with other young musicians, prepare a gig set list, and get ready to perform them live at the closing gig.
