Overview

As part of Brigit Festival 2026, we are launching our new monthly conversation club Giving Voice to Arts!

Join us for Giving Voice to Arts!

Arts connect us all and open our minds to new perspectives, cultures, and ideas. In our conversation club, Giving Voice to Arts, we encourage you to share this experience with each other – and with an artist.

For our monthly sessions, we invite an artist to give insights into their craft and to allow you a glimpse of what happens behind the scenes.

Have an inspiring chat in a relaxed setting. Everyone is welcome, no matter if an art enthusiast or casually interested – we want to hear your take!

Our guest artist for the launch is opera and theatre director Kate Guelke, followed by a musical performance from Aoife Kelly, who will be celebrating Brigit through the medium of song and the fiddle.

Short Bio

As the Artistic Director of Spark Opera, Kate has directed and produced full-scale opera classics, pop up opera, opera for children, community opera, music theatre and new opera shorts.
