Neighbourhood
The centre of town is only a 10 min walk. There is a veg market nearby on Sat mornings.Art galleries, cinema,cafes and pubs all within walking distance. Thee are 2 really cool pubs on the quay that host live music and quirky quiz nights. The pubs I play in are only 15 mins away where there are regular, daily Irish traditional sessions. I am steeped in the musical scene in Cork and could recommend the best spots for free live music.

I am an artist and musician steeped in the artistic culture of Cork City, Ireland. I also teach drawing and painting at Cork College of Art.
I have a studio in my house so if you're a visual artist you're welcome to use. There is a guitar also if you get the urge and don't want to have to travel with one.
I have an adorable cat called Peggy who likes some attention and company but is often outside prowling, and usually sleeps indoors at night.
I'm a mature, independent woman who enjoys traveling to new places and engaging with like minded folk in artistic circles.
