Try to make time for this great series of events, we had an amazing experience last year hosting in Tuam which for us kickstarted a longer engagement with the community here with the Irish Architecture Foundation #ReimagineTuam Hometown Architect fund.

Galway’s waterways form a unique soundscape in a busy city centre. This event explores the sounds and provides a guided walk created by Eugene McKeown. In addition, a topophilic map of key locations along the route has been developed for a self-guided walk along the Corrib. #asmr

As part of my work on the Markievicz Award I’m looking to speak with people from all over Ireland who were at houses dances, crossroads dances & dances in halls from roughly the 1930s - 60s period. Particularly those that might have stories from the impacts of the 1935 Dance🧵

Interesting research opportunity here on vacancy

Space for Music, this week we hosted a bunch of Muscians to talk about the role of music in Arklow. Turns out in spite of its thriving past, today's scene is fractured and lacking spaces to perform. Many thoughts, tunes and magic was had.
