ClassicsNow fest2024 The Future of the Past

Tuesday, January 16, 2024 - 16:00

Following the success of its third festival in 2023, ClassicsNow Fest 2024 will showcase the current burst of exploration and re-engagement with Classics and the ancient world. Artists, writers and thinkers, international and Irish, are taking Classics as a lens to examine our contemporary cultural and political preoccupations and challenges..

The three-day programme in February will present a series of inviting encounters including performances and readings, both online and live, in public spaces - art galleries and cultural centres - with a number of events aimed at second and third-level students. In discussions, interviews, film screenings, musical theatre performances and exhibitions, you will see and hear from artists who are working in different genres and art forms, in thought-provoking and imaginative ways.
