Feeling homesick? This Cork workshop will help you create a personalised piece of post

By Yay Cork April 30, 2024April 29, 2024

Feeling a little lost or lonely?

This Friday, May 3rd, or Saturday, May 4th, you can join a correspondence workshop for the homesick – all themed around the importance of keeping in touch.

Riki Matsuda’s Happy Hour will see every participant leave with a personalised piece of post for that special someone.

“Come visit the Triskel Sample Project Space this Friday or Saturday for a social hour of making correspondence art with the artist.” say the organisers.

“Enjoy group drawing, letter writing, and a quick lesson in envelope construction. Write to your mum, a stranger, an unrequited love, a cat, or even yourself; in fact, anyone you believe is in need of a little tenderness.”

HAPPY HOUR: Correspondence workshops for the homesick about the importance of keeping in touch, facilitated by TRISKEL SAMPLE Project Space artist in residence, Riki Matsuda. May 3th and 4th, 2-3pm in @TriskelCork Places free but limited: https://t.co/xz28SKZGfx pic.twitter.com/DZvELsMgg7
