A Portrait of the Artist Film Screening


Film

6 December 2025 at 7pm

We were pleased to host a screening of the 1977 adaptation of James Joyce’s novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (dir. Joseph Strick) on Saturday, 6th December 2025 at 7pm.

The film depicts the coming-of-age of Stephen Dedalus at the turn of the 20th century. It poignantly explores the timeless themes for which Joyce is known; national identity and personal belonging, loss of youth and innocence, and the complexities of artistic life.

The James Joyce Centre is supported by the Department of Culture, Communications and Sport.
