Irish Academy Make-Up artists have been invited to the Mansion House by the Trinity Business Alumni to assist them with a fundraiser for Respect, a charitable organisation for people with intellectual disabilities. The Event, titled ‘Dress To Impress’, is a fashion show with 36 male and female models and will be attended by more than 500 people. The academie’s Make-Up department is now renowned for the quality of the Make-Up artists it produces. In recent years our Make-Up artists have been asked to assist at many events and exhibitions and have volunteered their skills to a variety of fundraising events for charitable organisations. The Academy have been working closely with organisers of the event, including Clara Halpin, head of personal shopping at Arnotts, to ensure all runs smoothly. The event will be co- hosted by RTE presenter Kathryn Thomas and entrepreneur Eddie Hobbs. It promises to be a fantastic experience for the Academy Make-Up artists who were trained by our award winning Make-up artist and author of Ireland’s first Make-Up book Rhona Cullinan. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the Make-Up artists Jacqueline Finnegan – Orla Carey – Sharon Garbutt – Tanya Walshe & Liz Talbot for donating their time and skills to this special event.
