Join artist Mary Rose Day as we launch her exhibition Beauty and Wonders of Nature.

Written and directed by UCC film studies student Tereza Feixová.

Opened in the Jennings Gallery on 17th April. Closes 13th June.

In aid of the Cystic Fibrosis Unit in CUH.

This exhibition is a visual narrative of the experience of an Irish nurse in WW1.

The College of Medicine and Health is delighted to announce that our first post Covid exhibition will open in The Jennings Gallery on Thursday 11th May.

A bright mural will now welcome young patients, families, and staff at Brookfield Health Sciences Complex (BHSC) in University College Cork (UCC) as the University unveiled the large artwork today.

UCC commissioned artist Kevin O’Brien to create the mural inspired by ‘A Bee at UCC’, a book written by JP Quinn, Head of the UCC Visitors' Centre and illustrated by UCC graphic designer Charlie Ruxton.

Unveiling the mural ‘A Bee at Brookfield’, Professor Nicole Müller said: “Combinations of color, lighting, and texture are key to setting the tone for spaces such as patient waiting rooms. The mural has transformed our reception into a warm, bright and welcoming space for our paediatric clients from HSE and South Infirmary Victoria University Hospital (SIVUH)”.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, toys and children’s books had to be removed from the clinic reception which left the waiting rooms less welcoming.

Congratulations to Dr Kathy D’Arcy, UCC Medicine Graduate (2003), who came first in the healthcare professional category of the Hippocrates Poetry Prize, an international award for poetry about medicine and healthcare. 

The Jennings Gallery mourns the passing of the wonderful Dr. Bridget Maher on May 1st 2017.
