A weekend Festival to present oeuvres by Polish Musicians living in Ireland and their local and international musician friends in 30 minute gigs each. Unparalleled Chords Festival is an opportunity for everyone to listen to various bands and solo players performing different musical genres; a day to chill out, to meet the musicians and to experience the best of musical intercultural collaborations in Ireland. |
The Festival will take place at the Centre for Creative Practices in the centre of Dublin. If the weather allows it the gigs will take place outdoors in the patio area with the space for audiences on the comfy colourful beanbags. Some projections on the walls in the evening will definitely make the evening and the setting one not to be missed.
Feel free to bring your own booze! |
The registration for the musicians is free and ends on the 15th August. |

ArtPolonia |
 |
Based in Dublin, ArtPolonia is the most active organisation facilitating intercultural co-operation and exchange between the Polish Community in Ireland and local programmes, events and audiences.
|
It is the only organisation with a specific focus on cultural exchange between both communities. |
Since December 2007 ArtPolonia has also opened its programme to international artists and aims at establishing regular contacts between the international artists and audiences in Dublin. |
In this year’s programme, along with works by excellent Polish artists, were included outstanding works of artists from Ireland, UK, USA, Germany, Sweden and Israel. This approach will be continued. |
|
Through shared projects ArtPolonia seeks to create and enhance new forms of intercultural dialogue as well as personal engagement and exchange.

Our long term goal is to establish a professional forum for intercultural cooperation in Dublin with a special focus on the Irish and Polish exchange both in Ireland and Poland. |
Our mission is based on the underestimated fact that in an unstable and permanently changing environment high level cultural events are crucial in the creation of a social space of reference for personal and collective identities, values as well as for involvement and development. |
