The National Gallery is holding a symposium on Thursday 5 November designed to help people to devise strategies that will enable them to think more creatively about what they do, where to source funds, how to attract visitors and to serve people well. The distinguished panel of speakers include Anna Cutler, Tate Modern; Steven Hadley, Audiences Northern Ireland; Lia Ghilardi, Noema Research & Planning; Damian O'Brien, Failte Ireland, Dr. Ross Parry, University of Leicester; Stuart McLoughlin, Business to Arts, including six case histories from a variety of venues in Ireland. The conference will be chaired by Myles Dungan, Una Carmody, and Doireann Ní Bhriain. The day concludes with tours of the exhibition Edvard Munch: Prints; Centre for the Study of Irish Art/Yeats Archive, or Print Room; and a reception followed by a special talk:'The Story of The Ros Tapestry', by Countess Ann Griffin Bernstorff, and Alexis Griffin Bernstorff, in association with The Crafts Council of Ireland. The symposium is organised by the National Gallery of Ireland Education Department, supported by Failte Ireland, under the auspices of the ICOM International Committee for Education and Cultural Action.
