    Farm Walks - Call for Artists

    As part of the Creative Ireland Shared Island Programme, Leitrim County Council and The Dock are working with farmers in Leitrim and Fermanagh who are members of Leitrim Sustainable Agriculture Group and Ulster Wildlife.

    Through a series of six Farm Walks, farmers will lead a talk about their farm, current practices and future plans. Each Farm Walk will also feature a talk by an invited artist whose work resonates with that farm, its environment, heritage and other special characteristics.

    We are now inviting other interested artists whose work resonates with the overall project, or with the ethos of a specific farm, to attend one or more Farm Walks.
