Galway University Hospitals Arts Trust is seeking applications for its 2014 exhibition programme.  GUH Arts Trust is the leading arts and health programme in the west of Ireland.  Artists/curators should keep in mind when submitting a proposal that we are programming for an acute hospital setting with vulnerable people and this will be considered in selecting exhibitions.

Applications sent after this date will not be considered.
