Opportunity for Schools: UCC’s Good Vibes Art Calendar Project 2025

University Collge Cork (UCC)
Deadline: 30 November 2024

University College Cork (UCC) Good Vibes Project invites schools to get involved in the pilot 2025 Art Calendar Project. This is an ideal project for primary or secondary school class groups to participate in.

Have you perhaps come across a piece of art (song, poem, play, novel, painting, drawing, photograph, film, sculpture etc.) that resonates strongly with you? A piece of art that in the currently overwhelmingly crisis-ridden world might reassure people, give them hope and strengthen their sense that humans can do better?

The 2025 Art Calendar Project pilot aims to inspire with a weekly online calendar featuring a selection of 52 pieces of art from submissions. Aiming to inspire ‘good vibe moments’.

If your class or group are interested in getting involved, please share your selected piece as follows:

• In English, briefly introduce the piece of art you have selected (max. 150 words), explain why it has touched you personally and might have an uplifting impact also on others,
• add any additional information (image, link, source/copyright etc.) that helps to convey a vivid impression of the selected piece of art,
• submit and send your proposal by 30 November 2024 to: goodvibesproject@protonmail.com

Please also note:

• You are welcome to send up to three proposals if you wish.
• As cultural and linguistic diversity is valued in this project, contributors with a first language other than English are encouraged to provide a first language version of their proposal(s).
• You can download a PDF with a few examples of the (bilingual) format in which the contributions can be submitted: Contributions to Project – Some Examples
