    Wanted to check availability on the Dundrum 12th – 16th July course for my 13 year old son. can I check if 2 places are still available as his friend may like to attend with him. Thank you looking forward to hearing back from you. Susan

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      There are indeed some places left in the Taney Teen Camp. We take far fewer teens though to keep the event cool and intimate, so dont leave it too late to book. Paul

  2. Suzanne says:

    Can you tell me if you have any availability on the Teen Camp due to take place at the Red Stables in Raheny in August?

  3. Breda O'Neill-Fay says:

    Please advise availability in Rua Red and Taney. Michael did your course in Rathgar 2 years ago and really enjoyed it. Now he’s 13! He does not do art in school, is there a requirment for previous knolwedge. Also if you have availability, is it the same course in each venue or would he benefit from doing June and July in Tallaght and Taney.

    Thank you
    Breda

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Breda. The teen camp and classes are suitable for students of all levels (interest and ability). While some are looking for help with Junior and Leaving Cert Art many are just doing it as a hobby. Paddy Lynch is running both Teen camps in RUA RED and Taney this summer. It is the same programme. It is a really cool subject – we expect both to book out. There are places available. I will book a place for Michael – drop me a line at info@artzone.ie. Cheers, Paul

    Hi Paul

    Could you let me know if you have availability in your Summer Teen camp in Raheny and in the July camp in Malahide.

    Looking forward to hearing from you in the near future.

    Regards

    Elaine O’Doherty

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

    Hello Paul!

    I would like to book my daughter,Danica, for the art summer camp in Castleknock Parish. She is twelve years old. I would like her to join the 18th-22nd of July Camp. You may contact me in my mobile,0877816413.

    Thanks a whole lot!!

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Sincere apologies Ophelia. We have just heard from the Centre that one of their weekly tennants arent willing to change to allow us use the room for the Teen Camp, and it was too late to get a room in the school next door. We are going to have to cancel this camp. We are offering Castleknock customers 50% off to go to any other Teen Camp. Paul

  7. Clifford Nolan says:

    Have you room for two more in Taney ? 15 year old cousins. One from Dublin and the other visiting from Barbados.
    What is the teacher / student ratio ?

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Clifford. We do have space for 2 more in the Taney Teen Camp. We maintain a 15:1 Student Teacher ratio for the older groups. You can book online at http://www.artzone.ie or give us a quick call on 01 4990614. Best regards, Paul

  8. tom tynan says:

    The Red Stables Art Centre, Raheny
    8th Aug – 12th Aug
    do you have availability – 15 year old girl

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Tom, There are some places left on this Teen camp. This years project has really captured the imagination so we are booking strongly. If you want to book a place just complete the booking form online or send me your daughters name, address and a parental contact number and I will complete the booking for you. Best regards, Paul

  9. Karen says:

    Hi, could you tell me if you have any camps (preferably in Taney) for teenagers, w/c either 4, 11 or 18 July.. The illustration one looks great but is it just on the w/c 25 July? That week doesn’t suit us! Thank you.
    Karen

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Sorry Karen. There is a limited demand for Teen camps so we just run one in our bigger venues. That way it fills, has the atmosphere and goes well. Taney is set for the 25th of July. Paul

  10. soconnor says:

    Hi

    Do you have places left in any of the above course, were planning to book for Castleknock but see it has been cancelled.

    14 yrl old boy thanks . S

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Serena, There are places available in The Red Stables or Taney Parish Centre. There was a fatal mix up on the venue booking for Castleknock. Our teen art group will start back up there on 16th of September. Regards, Paul

  11. paula walsh says:

    hi .. i was wondering is the kilester camp running this summer ??

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Paula, We are running two camps in Clontarf and one in Drumcondra this summer. The camp in Killester last year was a great success but it is a very busy centre and we had issues with child safety, equipment and space for playtime. We have places in Clontarf Parish Centre or Na Fianna GAA Club if either suit you. Regards, Paul

  12. Helen lane says:

    Comic Book Illustration Camps – I am wondering if you are doing this camp in any other location other than Rathfarmham.

    Thank you Helen

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Helen, We ran Comic Book Illustration camps in multiple locations last summer. Unfortunately there is only limited demand for specialist camps so we dont run too many. We are launching a Comic Book Illustration Class programme next week in Rathfarnham, and a summer camp here to build on that. We hope to run these camps in other art centres once we have perfected them here. Sorry, Paul

  13. Olive Gaughan says:

    Do you have space on your comic book illustration camp 13th-17th August? My 11yr old would love to take part.

    Thanks,
    Olive

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Olive. there are still a couple of places on the Tween Comic Book Illustration camp. You can book online http://www.artzone.ie/bookings or give us a quick call on 01 4990614. Places are strictly limited to ensure the quality of the camp. Regards, Paul

  14. mags says:

    Hi,
    can you tell me if there is availability for the comic book illustration camp in august? Can you also give me the times it runs during the day and exactly where it is based in Rathfarnham.

    Thanks
    Mags

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Hi Mags, There are places on the Teen Comic Book Camp and we have just had a cancellation for the Tween camps so there is one place left on that. It is 10am to 2pm each day. We are on Castleside Drive, literally just beside Rathfarnham Castle. Text 086 8159073 or email bookings@artzone.ie if you want us to hold a place for you. Paul

  15. Helen says:

    I am very interested in the comic book illustration course for my daughter, the question that i have is that, is it only on in Rathfarnham, is it on anywhere on the northside of Dublin.

    • Paul.Shorte@artzone.ie says:

      Sorry Helen, We only run the specialist courses in our own studios at the moment. The numbers are kept small to ensure quality. It is hard to run viable camps in other venues where we have rent on top of staff and material costs. We do hope to run more in The Red Stables in future. Regards, Paul
