Louise Garcia’s life journey weaves together a love of the natural world with creative writing and theatre performance work. She spent over twenty years stimulating young imaginations in her teaching career, alongside creative endeavours in community theatre and local broadcasting. 

Her recent creative work in Tipperary has involved scripting and presenting nature films, writing and producing plays such as Lady Blessington’s Bath, performing in pantomime and street entertainment and hosting large-scale public events such as Clonmel’s Zombie Walks. 

Brigid Teehan’s art practice involves working with people, places and situations where she is operating at various levels of creative direction, organisational structure; curation and production. 

Her strategy has been to test how an artist might exist in spheres of life outside the art world such as businesses, workplaces, schools, mental health settings, communities of interest, and empty buildings. At the same time attempting to bring that work back to the contemporary art context. 

Completed the B.A. (Hons) Animation & Motion Design course in Limerick School of Art and Design (2016). A self-motivated practitioner with a passion for the more traditional forms of animation, particularly stop frame animation. Over the years I have been developing my skills as a stop-motion animator and model maker.  

In 2019 I was presented with the opportunity to facilitate Stop Motion Animation workshops through the Artist in Primary Schools scheme. Since then, I've worked with several schools, youth centres and other organizations. 

My name is Tara Power and I am an actor, writer, singer, drama facilitator and lecturer. I worked in Beijing as a drama facilitator and creator of work for early years for several years. I also act in theatre, TV, film and voice-over and I am currently part of a radio drama production with Green Ember Arts. 

I write interactive drama for children and I teach drama in education in the School of Social Science, Language and Law on the Early Childhood BA in TU Dublin. I have completed a master's in Higher Education and my research examined online role-play to foster social skills.
