Slideluck Dublin in Limerick & Cork

Founded in 2000 in the backyard of Seattle, Washington photographer Casey Kelbaugh as an alternative method to showcase artwork while sharing food at a potluck gathering. Kelbaugh later relocated to Manhattan, New York in 2003, hosting the first New York City Slideluck in 2004. By 2006, Slideluck regularly hosted events throughout the year in New York City.

Ireland –

Slideluck is thrilled to launch its second event in Ireland in conjunction with the PhotoIreland Festival. It has an international reputation with events from Bogotá to Paris as well as impressive selection of previous contributors such as Elliot Erwitt, Gregory Crewdson and Alec Soth. Please join us for an evening of photographic slideshows and don’t forget to bring your favourite dish!

Slideluck is a mash-up of a slideshow and a potluck and mixing things up is an essential component of our work. Slideluck brings diverse groups of people, artwork, food, and perspectives together under one roof. From this diversity something unique and magical is born. Each event is localized in the sense that artists from a community present work to that community. The work of established artists is shown alongside that of emerging and non-professional artists.
