The Chronicles of Tallaght
What's the story?
'The Chronicles of Tallaght' is a large collaborative arts programme that TCA are embarking on, which will celebrate the history, and examine the future of, the Tallaght area. It will be wholly focused on the local community and, beginning with a research and outreach phase, we are consulting the people of Tallaght - past and present - to determine the direction in which the project will go.
What will it look like?
At this moment, all we know is that the project will be an exploration and celebration of the rich histories, stories, diversities, challenges and successes of Tallaght and its people. We are different, we bear witness to our own lived experiences in our home place of Tallaght - rooted in centuries of history.
Will you be part of the story?
- If you feel you'd like to be part of this project, in whatever form it ultimately takes, we'd like to hear from you.
- If you have stories about Tallaght you want to share, we'd like to hear from you.
- If you love Tallaght and want to contribute your knowledge, time, or talent towards this project, we'd like to hear from you.
We want to gather stories, photos, memories and archives from a wide variety of the residents of Tallaght. We then aim to work with the contributors and create a range of wonderful participatory arts projects with the gathered materials and stories.
More information about this project will be made available very soon, but in the meantime, any groups, organisations or individuals interested in chatting with TCA about this project can get in touch by phone on 0862706581 or by emailing us at chroniclesoftallaght@gmail.com
We look forward to hearing from you.
