A4 Sounds is an interdisciplinary art collective based in Dublin but with members across the globe. The mission of the A4 Sounds art collective is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, curate innovative participatory art events and broaden engagement through community arts education. Our new workspace is an extension of this work, intended as a participative socially engaged arts and education centre in Dublin. Drawing on the best elements from existing artist studios, maker spaces, social spaces and education practices, both nationally and internationally, we are developing a unique model which both supports practitioners’ professional development and effects real social change in response to our needs as citizens and communities, and how we access and participate in arts and education.
