When Damien, Fred and I came together to plan out Digital Art Week (#tap2011 on Twitter), I don’t think any of us expected it to have been such a great success! With great support from loads of teachers around the country, we now have a permanent digital art gallery with 365 original images. The report of the event has been published in PC Live magazine and Leadership+, the IPPN’s magazine for principals.
Pamela O’Brien and Bernie Goldbach from the Tipperary Institute came up with a really nice idea for their annual ICT in Education conference. They asked if they could display a sample of the art at the conference. Bernie’s three-year old daughter selected a number of the images and these were printed, framed and displayed in the entrance to the main lecture hall. Below is a gallery of the exhibition. The frames are now going on display in Carlow Educate Together NS. Contact has already been made with Éigse, the Carlow Arts Festival, who have shown some interest in working with us next year. Who knows? We might see the frames in a real art gallery next year!

If you were to walk into any primary school and compared it to the classroom you might have sat in only a generation ago, apart

Great to see that the artwork is getting noticed. Would be great to see them in a real art gallery. Thanks for the mention, but really Bernie deserves the entire credit here 🙂
