In a rather bold brave move LimerickTango has joined with a number of other artists to take over a vacant shop unit. Limerick City Council runs a program called Creative Limerick that brings some life to empty buildings by allowing them to be used by artists as studios, galleries and pop-up shops.
This presents a fantastic opportunity for LimerickTango as we now literally have a shop window. We are visible. We are no longer hidden in a back room. Instead we have a large area of glass that looks out onto one of the city’s main pedestrian junctions.
There is a little bit of work to be done yet. The wood for the floor arrives tomorrow…

MIDNIGHT TANGO: Live Via Satellite will be showing at Limerick Omniplex, July 13th 7.30pm.
