Culture Night at Sirius Arts Centre celebrates local culture through partnerships with Cobh-based groups and creatives. The Cobh Animation Team presents a living-history showcase, using period costumes and props to explain and reenact key moments from Cobh’s past. This year’s Cobh Artist Trail, produced by artist Aine Farrell, features an exhibition inspired by Cobh’s landscape and social life that brings together an eclectic selection of practitioners, complementing public displays throughout the town. Writer Michelle Dunne, organiser of the Spike Island Literary Festival, hosts ‘Evil Genius’, a soirée with authors Catherine Kirwan and Amy Jordan, where they discuss their interests and approaches to crime fiction.
