Why Dublin?
- Rich with culture, Dublin is famous for
its writers, such as James Joyce and Samuel Beckett, as well as for traditional Irish music. - This vibrant city of green parks, vast museums, and historic landmarks is wonderfully compact, conducive to strolling around and relaxing. The fine Georgian area, as typified by Merrion and Fitzwilliam Squares, is only a short walk from the famous St. Stephen’s Green.
- Just half an hour from the city center, you will find mountain walks, stately homes and gardens, sandy beaches, and charming fishing villages.
- At night, the city comes alive with everything from trendy cafe bars along the cobblestone streets of the area called Temple Bar to the more traditional Dublin pub.
- The techniques we explore in this creativity course will heighten your appreciation of Dublin and its surroundings, while the sounds and sights of this beautiful locale will help spark your creative work in class.
