SUMMARY:The Salvage Symphony
DESCRIPTION:The Salvage Symphony is a three-year Shared Island Initiative funded by Creative Ireland\, bringing together music communities in Clonmel\, Co. Tipperary\, and Ballymena\, Co. Antrim\, through a shared love of music and a commitment to sustainability. \nA collaboration of Clonmel Junction Arts Festival\, Rockwell Academy of Music\, Ballymena Chamber Orchestra and Ballymena Community Choir\, the project explores how unwanted musical instruments can be repurposed into innovative performance spaces and props\, giving new life to materials while creating opportunities for shared musical experiences. \nSuzanne Buttimer\, Project Manager of The Salvage Symphony and Artistic Director of Rockwell Academy of Music\, explains: “‘The Salvage Symphony Project’ champions sustainability by repurposing musical instruments\, connecting likeminded music communities in Antrim and Tipperary. Together\, I hope we’ll create innovative features that enhance and enable performance spaces\, giving new life to the materials and places in our communities.” \nThrough workshops\, creative collaboration and shared performances\, the project aims to strengthen connections between the two communities and create lasting opportunities for cultural exchange. Following the initial 3-day visit of 14 musicians and choir members from Clonmel to Ballymena\, County Antrim in October 2026\, the project will continue to develop in 2027\, with the creation of new performance spaces and a visit to Clonmel by Ballymena musicians and community choir. \nAs Rebecca Lenehan\, Artistic Director of Clonmel Junction Arts Festival\, reflects: “Community engagement is a particular emphasis of the festival\, but it felt particularly important what we are doing and the opportunities we are giving and being given to connect people through a shared love of music and interest in salvage.” \nFunded as part of the Shared Island Initiative by Creative Ireland. \n\nRebecca Lenehan\, Louise Moyles\, Barrie Peterson\, Bea Conner-Peterson\, Fidelma Nugent\, Paul Hayes\, Helen Hartigan Heaney\, Rhoda Kinsella and Suzanne Buttimer of ‘The Salvage Symphony’ project visit the Peace Wall in Northern Ireland.

SUMMARY:Incognito: A Mystery Art Sale
DESCRIPTION:We’re launching a callout for artists to be part of our Incognito (a mystery art sale) fundraiser for the festival – a celebration of Tipperary artists and an opportunity to pick up a Christmas gift or two. \nEach A5 postcard sized piece will be available for sale at €30 at the special launch on Thursday\, 3rd December from 6pm to 7pm at The Platform in the Showgrounds Shopping Centre. The only catch is that you buy without knowing the identity of the artist\, based purely on your love of the work you see before you. \nWe’re really excited to launch this fundraiser to support the sustainability of the festival and hope you will join us on Thursday 3rd December to see all the artwork and perhaps choose a Christmas gift… \nPlease contact info@junctionfestival.com if you are interested in being one of the artists. All artists will receive publicity from the festival and their work will feature in the group exhibition.
