<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Plenty of time to apply for the 16th Annual 'Ted and Mary O'Regan Arts Bursary' ( <span style="font-family: inherit;">The purpose of the Award is to assist an individual or individuals, either from or with a strong connection to Waterford City or County, to pursue and develop their chosen arts discipline.) </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">inaugurated in 2005 in honor of this power couple who done so much for the arts in Waterford.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Criteria for the Bursary is open and flexible, people of any age can apply. In the past the Bursary has facilitated recipients to attend a third level arts course, but this is not a requirement. The award will aim to fill the financial gap which prohibits an arts worker or arts student of any age or any arts discipline achieving their <br />artistic goal.</span><br />

Theatre Royal are among the local arts groups and this combined with the
support of Waterford City and County Council makes this annual award possible.

Resolutions’ is a new one act play that looks into the past, present and future of characters from Waterford City as they go through the tradition of counting down to the New Year. The play was created by the older drama members of Waterford Youth Arts with their director Martina Collender. It is a strong issue based piece and is definitely not aimed at children.<br />
<br />
So come along its a great production and its for a great cause. See you then. </div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">WYA (Waterford Youth Arts) would like to invite you to see our, 25th annual Summer Theatre Project - 'We have 11 Years to save the planet, but we only have today to save ourselves' which is running in Garter Lane Arts Centre from the 21st - 24th of August at 8pm each evening, followed by a question and answer session with the cast and crew.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Directed by Grace Dyas / Deirdre Dwyer -"We have 11 Years to save the planet, but we only have today to save ourselves" is a dark comedy on <br />the very serious topics of Climate Change and Mental Health, <br />that concerns today's youth.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />
"It’s real. It's happening, it's an emergency; a crisis. The planet is under threat and the consequences of not acting are devastating. How can we can sing and dance when the world is burning up? The planet is under threat, a global crisis, but we don’t have know how or have the ability to do anything about it, we are young people, what can we do? And everyone around us seems to have their heads buried in the sand. Maybe we should just try to enjoy the summer, make theatre, make memories. Forget about it. But we can’t. Can we? We want to put on a good show, everyone loves the Summer Project. But some of us want to act, to take a stand, use this platform. The drama will unfold from the ensuing conflict."</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />
Running on the 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 24th of August in Garter Lane Arts Centre. Tickets are 15 euros for Adults and 10 euros for young people and they can be purchased through Garter Lane Arts Centre's Website - https://bit.ly/2MpXh3r, over the phone by calling 051 855038 or by visiting their premises at 22 O'Connell St, Waterford.

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px;">Showing at 3pm and 8pm in the evening this ninety minute long production, </span></span><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px;">will explore the history, culture and social events of the town through a series of interviews, old photos, clips of local activities and performances by local musicians. The film looks at old Tramore when it was quite a small town but with big families. We hear stories about tragedies, romance, dances, Race Week, bits of history and tall tales, stories of emigration and great pubs, Cinema and train stories, learning to swim and heading ‘Down Around’. It captures little glimpses of life today and we see the cockle men in action, hear surfing stories and see the road bowling of Fenor. </span></span><br />

It's almost the end of may and with the rising temperatures (hopefully) and the start of the summer vacation it's time to decide what summer camps / schools to sign up too. With plenty of sports camps in and around Waterford for young athletes, you may be asking what else is there for young people, one great option is the WYA Summer School. </div>

This year Waterford Youth Arts is kicking off the season in style with our new play - The Lost Elf.<br /><br />"Christmas in Waterford City is on the verge of being cancelled....an elf has gotten lost from Santa and finds himself at the mercy of humans. Will their humanity and their Christmas Magic save him and bring him back to the North Pole in time for Christmas Eve? The pressure is on and the clock is ticking to g</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; text-align: center;">et the Elf home, however the Elf's heart begins to Break and his Christmas Magic slips away when he discovers that no one spends time with each other anymore and that there isn't much love and humanity to be found around the city. Evil & Eviller &the Evilness Corporation are insisting that the only way to have a good Christmas is to spend loads and loads and loads of money. A group of humans are our only hope - they may change their mind and realise wherever you find love it feels like Christmas, hopefully? or else.... Christmas will be cancelled." </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />
