County Library, Tallaght was the location for Creative Campus’19. Our creative exploration/theme was the interface between the interior of the library and the exterior of Chamber Square.
Over a three-month period from March – May, Creative Campus '19 artists and co-curators explored all aspects of Chamber Square, the buildings that surround it and the people who use it.

Creative Campus graduate artists and participating second level students re-imagined Chamber Square as a thriving hub of activity, a celebratory public space, a place to Linger4Longer.
The Creative Campus’19 team engaged with targeted second-level schools as core active participants in the project. The 2019 participating schools were Deansrath Community College, St. Marks Community School and Priory Youth Reach.

Participating second level students explored and experienced a diverse range of approaches to contemporary art making in a professional setting under the guidance of our artists and co-curators.
Students Emma Brennan from St. Mark Community School and Davina Cox from Deansrath Community College were awarded scholarships to the Portfolio Preparation Summer Course at NCAD.

Creative Campus ’19, LINGER4LONGER was exhibited at County Library, Tallaght 30th May – 30th August 2019.

Creative Campus’19, an initiative of Tallaght Community Arts, South Dublin County Council Arts Office and Noise Dublin in partnership with the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) and County Library, Tallaght.
