What's on in Waterford: Art exhibitions, life music, and movie magic

The music of Morricone will be performed

Art exhibition, January 20 to February 1, Garter Lane, 

The upcoming art exhibition titled, 'First View/Expanded Studio' is a selection of work by fourth year SETU Visual Arts students.

The fourth year degree Visual Art students from SETU Waterford invite you to explore the role of presenting artworks for exhibition and how conceptually and physically, this is taking form in the lead up to their final year exhibition in May 2025.

This exhibition 'First View/Expanded Studio' allows for a glimpse into the ideas, materials and techniques currently being researched and tested by the BA Visual Art students. 

For the students, it creates the opportunity to extend their practices through conversation and playful exploration of their work beyond the SETU Waterford studios situation into the clean white Gallery space. 

This in turn is a great preparation step to their final Degree show exhibition in May 2025.

An unforgettable night of downtempo rhythms and organic house beats is expected at Luca Records & Decks as Anadem makes his highly anticipated debut live performance at the Waterford venue on Friday, January 31, from 7.30pm to 10pm. 

This special evening will showcase Anadem's unique sound, blending deep grooves with soulful melodies, perfect for those who appreciate a more atmospheric and organic take on electronic music.
