Open Learning Ireland
Open Learning Ireland is a volunteer run group working to create an alternative educational model in Ireland. We want to create a new all ages education space in Dublin, where anyone can come to learn or teach anything that ‘takes their fancy’. To spread the idea, we’ve been running a series of PopUp learning days. The first as part of the Office Of Non-Compliance at the Dublin Contemporary 2011 Exhibition, and the most recent as part of the DIY Skillshare festival.
For more information check out http://openlearningireland.com or just drop by on the day.
Press materials (including high resolution images) are available at our website.
