Make Your Mark at The Ark!
To celebrate our Summer of Colour, we are setting out to make a very special piece artwork and we need you to be part of it!
This Saturday (4 July), we are inviting children of all ages to drop in between 12pm - 4pm, pick their favourite colour and then use it to make their own mark on our large evolving artwork. On the giant canvas is our very own unicorn and we are hoping to create the most colourful Unicorn ever! The finished artwork will be on display at The Ark over the summer for everyone to see.
So when you're in town this weekend, drop-in and be part of the picture - there will be other drawing that you can do as well while you enjoy a cool respite from the summer heat!

Our vivid unicorn was started last week by children from Catherine McAuley National School in Dublin 2 when they became the first to add their fingerprints to the artwork.
This project marks The Ark’s upcoming summer programme celebrating colour which will run from 14 July-23 August. Children aged 2+ and their families can discover the secrets behind their favourite colours through exhibitions, workshops, performances and talks. Explore an interactive exhibition which brings to life the fascinating stories of colour in all its forms and then participate in a workshop to create your own piece of art. The COLOUR! programme has been specially commissioned by The Ark and is curated by artist Jole Bortoli who has extensive experience working with children and families.
