If the stars were instruments, how might they sound?
Craigavon Borough Council’s Conversation Team have partnered with the Armagh Observatory and award winning composer Robert Jarvis to launch the ‘aroundNorth’ project’s week-long countrywide tour before it takes up permanent residency in Armagh Observatory.
The event, on Thursday, March 12, from 6.30pm to 9.30pm, will see sonic-art project ‘aroundNorth’ transform the night sky into a celestial music box rotating around Polaris, the North Star.
