County Longford Arts Service and NTE Longford present a large-scale outdoor digital projection art event transforming the former Ulster Bank building in the centre of Longford town.

The project aims to transform the former Ulster Bank building into a canvas of light, illumination and community spirit. This event, titled “Light Bank" is a digital mapping project that seeks to blend the rich culture of Longford’s commercial past with contemporary digital art, creating a mesmerising visual spectacle that celebrates the place of Longford as a vibrant town. The project will feature a sequence of animations and visual narratives projected onto the facade of the bank, telling a different story about the town's culture, its people and place. Projection venue will be hosted by Longford Arms Hotel.

Working in collaboration with mentor artist Caroline Conway, artists Nathan Sheridan, Mary Fleming, Raymond Asiemo and Patrina Prunty have developed site specific digital artworks that will be projected onto the former Ulster Bank building on Main Street.
