R.A.T.S or Random Artists Tipperary South is a recently made group, open to Artists from Clonmel and the surrounding areas. It was founded by Eoin De Leaster and David Anchell in November 22′.
The group has a large variety of artists, with disciplines ranging from oil, acrylic and watercolourists, sculpture, visual art and installation.
The group meet every few weeks in the Donaghmore club to hold meetings and to plan and prepare for upcoming events.
They also frequent their local Phil Carrolls for a different kind of meeting, a relaxed social chat to talk about current projects, to ask for ideas/ inspiration about using new mediums and to enjoy a pint while doing so!
The group has exhibited in the Donaghmore club and at When Next We Meet in 2023.
This current double exhibition showcases the artists progression of works, responding to the collection in the Museum of Hidden History.
The works on display here in the library, are to give the public an up close view of the different styles and talents from these local artists.
