Creative Ireland is the Government’s Legacy Programme for Ireland 2016 – a five-year initiative, from 2017 to 2022, which places creativity at the centre of public policy. Open meetings are currently taking place across the country, inviting members of the general public, as well as representatives from all sectors of the local community, to join the discussion about how the Creative Ireland programme will enable creativity for all citizens.
From arts organisations to historical societies, youth organisations, education bodies and beyond, these forums will facilitate the sharing and developing of ideas for local programmes that are relevant, inclusive and meaningful.
