The Student Forum is a group of students and recent graduates who engage with The Douglas Hyde and its programming in different ways over a period of twelve months. This includes participating in reading and discussion groups, meeting artists and curators, leading tours and responses to our exhibitions and group trips to exhibitions and events. Throughout the year, the group will engage with our 2026 of exhibitions by Abbas Zahedi, Nour Jaouda and Edith Karlson.
Through these engagements, Student Forum members bring their own research, ideas and artistic practices into reflections on the artworks they see, as well as into an ongoing interrogation of the purpose and possibilities of the gallery space.
The Student Forum 2026 are Rofaida AlQaisi, Melek Biberoglu, Gillian Boardman, Deva Cervera, Ciara Davitt, Padraig Dennan, Aoife Dunne, Sarah Edwards, Sean Farrell, Jack Galligan, Alba Molina, Emma Murphy, Berenice Guerrero Pattugalan, Daria Riabova, James Wellwood, Dylan Yearsley. Find out more about the Student Forum members here.
