After a rude interruption, Kilkenny Animated was thrilled to be back in 2022 for its 4th edition, with a brimming programme of visual storytelling that celebrates the creativity and craft of the visual image.
2022’s theme was ‘Adaptation’ with talks around Lighthouse Studios’ award winning El Deafo, recent release The Cuphead Show and Cartoon Saloon’s latest release My Father’s Dragon as well as lots of workshops, masterclasses and a bit of comedy too!
The festival is hosted by five time Academy Award® nominated animation studio, Cartoon Saloon and award winning Lighthouse Studios and is set against and inspired by the backdrop of Kilkenny’s medieval streets and slipways at the heart of Ireland’s Ancient East. Kilkenny Animated is the first festival of its kind in the world to bring together so many different aspects of visual storytelling for the enjoyment and appreciation of wider public audience.
