Cultural Companions Art & Soul at Castlemartyr 17th June

Art & Soul is back this June at the beautiful Castlemartyr Estate, and after two really popular years with our members attending in big numbers, it’s set to be another fantastic outing.

It’s a brilliant mix of contemporary sculpture and art, spread across the stunning grounds and inside the estate, with something new to see at every turn. It’s easy to see why so many people have made it a favourite over the past couple of summers.


🗓 Guided Tour – Wednesday 17th June at 12 noon

One of the best ways to experience the exhibition is the guided sculpture tour, where we will get background on the artists and the stories behind the work.

This is a really popular event with our members, and places on the guided tours fill up quickly every year. If you’re thinking of going, it’s best to book early to avoid disappointment.

🌿 A great summer day out

It’s a relaxed, enjoyable way to spend a day surrounded by art in a really special setting—and definitely one of those events that people tend to book again once they’ve been. Cultural Companions meet at 11.30am at reception
