'Good Neighbour' exhibit in Esker Arts brings together artists from across Ireland

The 'Good Neighbour' exhibit in Esker Arts is bringing together artists from across Ireland.

The exhibition runs until Friday, December 11. Admission is free and the galleries are open Tuesday to Friday, 10am to 5pm, and Saturdays 10am to 3pm.

Curated by Rachel Botha, the exhibit will bring together artists from Offaly and its neighbouring counties Galway, Roscommon, Tipperary, Laois, Westmeath, Kildare and Meath to create an artwork that engaged with the idea of ‘the good neighbour’.

This could be interpreted as the central subject or an intrinsic approach to the making of the work, and understood from varied positions.

The exhibition includes artists with differing practices and artworks spanning mediums of painting, video, textiles and more.
