The Contemporary Music Centre was filled to capacity for Dublin's first Culture Night on 22 September last.

An initiative which has been running for many years in other major cities such as New York, Rome, Paris, Copenhagen etc, on Friday 22 September almost 40 of Dublin's leading museums, galleries, studios and theatres threw open their doors until 9.00pm to encourage people who normally don't do so to visit and learn of the city's rich cultural offering.

Taking place as part of the Contemporary Music Centre's 20th anniversary celebrations, CMC's contribution was an opportunity for all the family to interact with new music in an innovative way.

The band LouReedsBrain (Richard Duckworth and Brian Bridges) played three live electronic sets in the Centre. Complete with an interactive control surface, audience members were able to join the fun! Indoor video projections and outdoor sound installations were also featured.

Culture Night 2006 was an initiative of Temple Bar Cultural Trust in association with the Council of National Cultural Institutions of Ireland.
