Join us on Friday, 4 September for First Fridays, presented by MoLI's Youth Advisory Panel! The panel is a learning initiative made up of young creatives working to foster an inclusive and reflective environment of diverse engagement within the museum. The night is set to be a unique exploration of how music can exist alongside literature in contemporary Ireland.
Visit Wild Earth, MoLI’s newest exhibition exploring Irish writers and the natural world through time, with poetry and prose spanning from the sixth century AD to the present day.
At 6.30pm, writers Anna Carey and Patrick Freyne discuss the role music plays in their lives and work, drawing on Ireland’s rich musical heritage and exploring the relationship between music and literature. At 8pm, join Caterina Schembri and poet Daragh Fleming for live music and poetry, followed by a brief discussion exploring the dialogue between text, literary motifs and musical composition.
