Artist Support - Glasshouse Tasteinyourmouth Opera

We were delighted to welcome Glasshouse to Draíocht for a week of Artist Support in our Studio.

Glasshouse is a music ensemble and arts organisation in Dublin. Their mission is to elevate Irish music through commissioning and collaboration. They produce and programme their own concerts, combining sound, space and visual design to create unforgettable music experiences.

Recent projects include the development of a new commission by Dreamcycles, R.Kitt, Lara Gallagher and collaborative projects with Irish artists Rachael Lavelle, Æ MAK, Caoi de Barra, Gareth Quinn Redmond and GUSH.

Glasshouse are currently in the development of a new pop opera made with tasteinyourmouth and Aran O'Grady.

Draíocht is recognised as a creative hub and laboratory space and invests significantly in the development of artist's practice by the provision of benefit in kind support such as space, technical support, admin/marketing support and specialist expertise. We offer a wide range of opportunities to artists i.e. commissions, residencies, artist studios/rehearsal space, co-productions, co-commissions, seed funding, mentoring.

Our Artist Support Series, launched during Covid-19, has helped 79 artists in 2020, 50 artists in 2021, 74 artists in 2022 and 53 artists in 2023, with the provision of free rehearsal and creative space. Space to rehearse, write, create, film, dance, think & plan ... whatever is needed!
