BREWING @ SAMPLE-STUDIOS

An Grúdaire Chatach was back to her old tricks boiling up some premium brews this week. First, a fine cider made with quality concentrated British apple juice, light spray malt, yeast and local Cork honey to produce a sparkling, medium dry traditional country cider of exceptional quality, strength and flavour. Racked and bottled with a abv of 5.3%. Next is a full-flavoured brown sugar lager made with Finnish grain extract, light spray malt, double hops, and fine Irish dark brown sugar to produce a crisp, medium-bodied lager with a subtle caramel undertone

BUILDING THE AUDITORIUM

Construction works have began on the new Sample-Studios auditorium on the third floor at our premises at former government buildings. This new 50 seat room will be built in the amphitheatre format across three tiers and will be fitted with full av equipment such as an LCD video projector and top of the range speakers. It will be available to rent at €50 per day for arts related lectures, seminars etc. as well as hosting in-house, performing arts and visual art events for TACTIC and The Workshop.

DARKROOM AND FLASHROOM

Sample-Studios recently finished construction on our black and white darkroom complete with all the traditional facilities; safe light, enlarger, developer trays, film dryer cupboard as well as tanks, reels etc. Following this we are now also setting out to build a flashroom. This photography studio measuring approx 25m square will be equipped with a full white backdrop, lighting rig with stands, softboxes, flashes, umbrellas as well as a green screen.

METAL AND WOOD WORKSHOP

Construction on the new metal and wood workshop in The Shed at Sample-Studios is also drawing to a close. This approx 32m square space is suitably equipped for a full range of machinery with 220 and 250V electricity outlets, housing members' equipment such as a ceramic kiln, woodworking lathe, welders etc. This workshop aims to be a convenient members' workspace for metal and woodworking as well as a suitable studio for work that needs appropriate ventilation eg; stone, ceramic, plaster, resin work etc.
