Thank you for your interest in the Courthouse Gallery Young Filmmakers Festival.

This is a free 3-part workshop series for young people aged 16-18. Across the three sessions, participants will work with filmmaker Alfie Hollingsworth to explore camera skills, sound, directing and visual storytelling, and to create a short film together. The project will conclude with a public screening at The Courthouse Gallery & Studios on Cruinniú na nÓg day.

Because this is a progressive workshop series, participants should be available to attend all three sessions.

Submitting this form is an expression of interest only and does not guarantee a place. Places are limited and will be offered based on availability.

Important booking note

As these workshops are free, we ask families to register thoughtfully. Each year, some places are booked but not used, which can mean another child misses the opportunity to take part.

Please only register interest if your child is likely to be available for all three sessions. To help us allocate places fairly, please only request the number of places you genuinely expect to use. If a family  registers multiple places and then takes up fewer than requested, they may be moved lower on the queue for this workshop series.  Where demand is high, those with a strong attendance record on previous free events will be prioritised for future free workshops and events.
