Throughout the year The Duncairn hosts the Creative Collective an amazing opportunity to engage artists from diverse artforms and backgrounds and invite them to explore different ways to collaborate across artforms and produce innovative and unique art and music.

This weekend they will bring a group to Ballydehob from The Duncairn’s pioneering collective of young artists from across Ireland to perform original music that they have collaboratively composed together alongside collective members from Cork … a demonstration of exactly what can happen when young people are given the time, resources and framework to develop cultural and creative connections.

Binding the Ties: From Belfast to Ballydehob Levis’ Bar in Ballydehob will host Belfast arts organisation, The Duncairn, for a weekend of music, art, poetry and cinema in the village from 11th-14thJuly. As part of the Creative Communities on a Shared Island initiative, two of Ireland’s most best known intimate venues from opposite corners of the island have teamed up to explore their mutual creative links in a project called ‘The Ties that Bind’.

“Creative Communities on Shared Island” is part of the Shared Island dimension to the Creative Ireland Programme 2023-2027, supporting cross-border creative projects to inspire connections between people, communities and places. “The Ties that Bind” project between Levis’ Corner House and The Duncairn is facilitated by Cork County Council and Belfast City Council.
