Fun on the Farm

Much of our time is spent on the O’Gorman family farm and in the surrounding area. You can enjoy hiking and mountain biking in the Blackstairs Mountains or gather around one of our campfires. Take time out of the day to seek a private spot under a tree to read a book or challenge a new friend to a game of ping pong or chess. Play fetch with the dogs or try your luck at fishing in the pond. Sit back and enjoy a movie on the big screen, make some music, or help out in the kitchen baking scones for the next morning’s breakfast. There is sure to be something for everyone to compliment a productive day in the studio.

Excursions

Ireland’s rich cultural history, expansive skies, and beautiful landscapes are an endless source of inspiration. You will be exposed to varied artworks, Irish and international, contemporary and ancient, which will inspire your work upon returning to the Cow House.

Ireland’s Southeast

During Art on the Farm, we take several day trips explore our own southeast region. Brimming with ancient sites, expansive beaches, and charming towns and villages, there is never a shortage of options.

We schedule these trips with the flexibility to make the most of good weather, exhibitions, and other special events that may be taking place. Our excursions may include visits to the nearby towns of Kilkenny and Wexford, Curacloe Beach, the Hook Penninsula, historical sites in the picturesque villages of Graiguenamanagh and St Mullins, and much more.
