South Dublin County—Intercultural Artists' Network
We're in the process of compiling a database of artists and creatives who form an important part of South Dublin County's vibrant arts scene. The network is free to join, and is for any practising creative across one or more artistic disciplines over the age of 18, full-time or otherwise, regardless of your background. Our only criterion is that you must be based in or working in South Dublin County (a bonus if you are interested in meeting and potentially collaborating with and networking with artists from diverse backgrounds). Through this, we aim to create space for artists to further engage with their careers, offering opportunities to develop their network and explore collaborations.
