A show-case of model-making craftsmanship from IADT

This year Mermaid is on a fundraising drive and, luckily for us, the talented students of IADT are here to help! Bray, Night and Day is an exhibition of 20 interactive automaton donation boxes inspired by all the various facets of Bray and designed especially for Mermaid. Themes include the aquarium, Bray Head, seaside amusements and of course…Mermaid!

During the exhibition, three of the best donation boxes will be chosen for permanent installation at Mermaid – and then the real competition will begin! Whichever donation box raises the most funds for Mermaid Arts Centre over a 6 month period will be ordained the winner, and it the model-maker will be awarded a an iPad mini. So make sure you vote with your coins for your favourite!

The IADT Model Making, Design and Digital Effects BA course is the only one of its kind in Ireland. As well a chance to see these wonderful automatons, patrons will get an insight into the world of the model-maker. A fantastic exhibition for the young and the

young at heart.
