Membership

Since 2006, IMMA's Membership programme has been an integral point of connection with our stakeholders. We have sought to deliver insightful events and appealing benefits that provide you with behind-the-scenes access to IMMA while also supporting the growth of the Museum. Over the last two years, as we responded to Covid-19, we introduced some new ideas and pulled back on others. Now, as we emerge into this post- pandemic era, it is a good time for us to refresh and review the programme for the first time since its inception. This will ensure we have a programme that is fit for purpose, meets the needs of the Members and is competitive in the marketplace.

From January 2023, we will be doing a full review of our Membership Programme, during which we will be pausing the renewals and new membership subscriptions. However, current member benefits will remain in place. If you have any queries about membership, please contact the Development team at: [email protected].

Ireland's museum for modern and contemporary art is based in Dublin. The Irish Museum of Modern Art presents a wide variety of art and artists' ideas in a dynamic programme of exhibitions.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
From around 2500 BC the knowledge of working gold and copper ushered in a new period of cultural development in Ireland and the practice of depositing objects in hoards throughout the Bronze Age has ensured a rich resource for the Museum's collections of bronze weapons and gold ornaments.

The crescent-shaped neck ornament known as the Lunula is perhaps the most characteristic Irish Early Bronze Age gold object, of which there are more than 50 examples in the collection. Early metalsmiths also produced discs and other objects of gold as well as a host of copper and bronze tools and weapons such as axes, daggers, spearheads and halberds. Over 2,000 Early Bronze Age axeheads alone have been found, of which the vast majority are in the Museum's collections.

During the earlier Bronze Age inhumation burial in small cemeteries was the practice, with the dead usually being accompanied by a pottery vessel or sometimes a number of vessels. Over 1,300 graves have been discovered. As a result, the collection is particularly rich in Early Bronze Age pottery, especially so-called Food Vessels, of which there are over 700 examples. There are also larger funerary vessels known as Urns, of which about 200 exist, and about 70 miniature vessels.

During the later part of the Bronze Age there was a decline in the art of pottery-making, perhaps linked to changes in burial practices that made the production of funerary pottery largely redundant. However, with advances in metalworking technology and a growth in wealth, there was an increase in the range and complexity of the objects produced by the smiths and an increase in the numbers that were deposited in hoards by wealthy owners. An exceptional hoard of bronze objects from Dowris, Co. Offaly comprised a total of perhaps 218 objects that included swords, spearheads, axes, gouges, knives, razors, cauldrons, buckets, horns, crotals and other miscellaneous objects. At Mooghaun North, Co. Clare a huge hoard of gold ornaments was discovered in 1854. Most of the estimated 146 objects found were bracelets but the find included seven neck ornaments, two ingots and two inter-looped rings. The quantity of Late Bronze Age objects in the collection may be indicated by the fact that over 200 hoards of metalwork have been found, and to this number must be added a considerable number of single stray finds as well as antiquities found during the course of archaeological excavations.

Peat bogs have proven a rich source of Bronze Age objects, including organic objects such as wooden block wheels from Doogarymore, Co. Roscommon and a woollen garment decorated with horsehair tassels used to wrap a votive hoard of bronze objects at Cromaghs, Co. Antrim.

In a number of instances graduated necklaces containing large amber beads have been discovered and one such find from Cogran, Co. Offaly may have contained as many as 160 beads, the raw material for which was found in the Baltic area of northern Europe. The excavation of Late Bronze Age crannóg sites at Ballinderry, Co. Offaly, Knocknalappa, Co. Clare and Lough Gara, Co. Sligo has added further material of an organic nature to the collections, including a range of domestic artefacts.

Recent radiocarbon dates from sites excavated in the Irish midlands suggest that knowledge of ironworking may have been known from as early as the eighth century BC.

At Kinnegad 2, Co. Westmeath, charcoal found associated with iron slag and pottery of Late Bronze Age type, yielded a date range of 810 - 420 BC. At Rossan 6, also in Co. Westmeath, charcoal associated with iron slag yielded a date range of 820 - 780 BC.

The transition to the widespread use of iron, in preference to bronze, appears to have happened slowly and over a long period, and it was not until around the third century BC that a distinctive Iron Age society, clearly recognisable in the archaeological record, emerged.

What gives the period its distinctive character is the widespread use of ornament to decorate objects using an art style that was developed first in central Europe by Celtic peoples. Known as the La Tène style, the art occurs on early objects, such as two imported gold collars found in a bog at Ardnaglug, Co. Roscommon that were probably made in the Rhineland in the third century BC.

Much of the Iron Age collection was uncovered during river drainage schemes and the cutting of peat bogs during the 19th century and some important finds were acquired without their provenances being recorded. The collection is rich in high quality bronze objects that were found in hoards, together with some highly important hoards of gold artefacts.

The native metalwork of the period is distinctive and contains types of objects that appear to be exclusively Irish, such as large ornamental bronze discs of unknown function and elaborate Y-shaped pendants that appear to have been used to lead horses in procession. It appears that the hoard material was deposited mainly as votive offerings placed in bogs, lakes, rivers and along the seashore, and the types of objects represented are seldom, if ever, found in settlement or burial contexts. Usually, the hoarded artefacts fall into a number of clear categories including personal ornaments, weapons and tools, horse furniture and harnesses, and feasting equipment.

Personal ornaments include pins, fibulae, beads, bracelets and neck ornaments. Simple collars of twisted gold strips are known but there is also the sumptuous gold collar found on the seashore at Broighter, Co. Derry. This find was associated with imported neck ornaments of Roman workmanship as well as an exquisite gold model of a boat, complete with mast and fittings, and a model cauldron.

Feasting equipment comprises metal and wooden vessels, including cauldrons, bowls, cups, platters and large wooden troughs.

Horse furniture and harnesses include the Y-shaped pendants mentioned earlier, which have been found in association with pairs of bridle bits. Wooden yokes found in bogs and the remains of wheeled vehicles are also included in the collections.

Weapons include swords, scabbards, chapes, spearheads and spearbutts. Among the organic finds from bogs are votive deposits of butter, a leather shield and items of clothing fashioned from wool, leather and hide.

There are also a number of mummified bodies, referred to as bog bodies, which are the remains of persons who were killed as part of a sacrificial ritual during the Iron Age.

There is a small amount of carved stone, including quern-stones and stone heads of which the Corleck Head is a well-known masterpiece.

The collection also contains imported Roman material including objects recovered from archaeological excavations and stray finds. Among the exceptional finds is a hoard of silver ingots and chopped up fine silver tableware from Balline, Co. Limerick.

Other finds include coins and jewellery excavated on cult sites at Freestone Hill, Co. Kilkenny and Newgrange, Co. Meath.

A number of objects imported from Roman Britain, including weapons and personal items, were discovered in an Iron Age cemetery on Lambay Island, Co. Dublin.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Pop songs in the Irish language are somewhat of a recent phenomenon in Ireland. With the population of Irish-medium schools rising steadily each year, more and more Irish children have become interested in learning and singing pop songs as Gaeilge. The most popular of these usually being in English originally and translated over to Irish.

Seachtain na Gaeilge ("Irish language week") is a non-profit organisation in Ireland which promotes the Irish language during a two week festival held at the beginning of March every year. As part of these celebrations, the organisers have released compilation CDs every year since 2005 of modern pop songs translated and performed in the Irish language. Called SnaG '05, Ceol '06, Ceol '07 and Ceol '08 etc. these albums have included songs such as Bladhm by Bell X1, Falling Slowly as Gaeilge by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová, and Heroes or Ghosts as Gaeilge by The Coronas. Other well know artists have released Irish versions of their songs for the Seachtain na Gaeilge CD such as Paddy Casey, Mundy, The Frames, Damien Dempsey, The Corrs, and Declan O'Rourke.

Coláiste Lurgan is an Independent Irish language summer school based in Indreabhán, Galway. Over the past couple of years, Coláiste Lurgan and its students have produced several covers of popular English-language songs translated into Irish. Their YouTube channel, TG Lurgan, has amassed some half a million views since 2010. A few of their most popular productions include a cover of Some Nights as Gaeilge by American indie pop band Fun, which features a brilliant vocal ensemble from all the students. Student Keith Ó Brien does an excellent vocal cover of The man who can't be moved as Gaeilge, Jenny Ní Ruiséil brings Irish language vocals to Lady Gaga's Bad Romance as Gaeilge, and Rolling in the Deep as Gaeilge sung by student Clara.

Other Irish artists have released pop songs as Gaeilge. The Rubberbandits produced I Wanna Fight Your Father as Gaeilge, which has amassed almost 1 million views on YouTube. Students at Trinity College Dublin produced a very popular cover of Call Me Maybe as Gaeilge.

A quick guide to available resources

In this resources section you will find four types of resource for each topic in the new junior cycle science course. All resources are available in both English and Gaeilge. These are designed to help make the transition to planning using learning outcomes smoother whilst also incorporating the key skills of the cycle easily.

All resources are made with the intention that some differentiation may be needed to fit the needs of your teaching style and the needs of your class. Some may seem too easy and some may seem too challenging but with a little adaption all can be integrated successfully into classrooms. The format of the resources was chosen after consideration of the rationale of the new Science junior cycle specification. I have listed some uses of each resource type but of course this is not exhaustive.

Keywords

Pre-teach vocabulary or provide to learning support teachers for use in resource hours. Challenge students to use a certain amount in a given task or simply provide to students to tick off as you progress through a topic.

Inquiry activity

Model skills used by Scientists and develop skills such as planning, interpreting data, displaying data and concluding in preparation for the classroom-based assessments and assessment task.

Literacy task

These generally require more reading. Practise skim and scanning reading techniques in class. Search through for keywords or simply provide for homework. The layout of these tasks is comprehension based where students find the information in text to answer questions that follow.

Assessment for Learning

Test your student's knowledge of topics in class or as homework. If you are in need of a simple cover lesson these will provide a simple activity to measure student's understanding of the topic.
