About
A contemporary arts centre in Tallaght with two galleries, a small performance space and an active programme that often includes workshops and classes for children and teens. Families can drop in for a quick look around the galleries (it’s easy to do in under an hour) or book a hands-on session when you want something more structured. Exhibitions change regularly, so it works well as a repeat indoor outing, especially for kids who like making things or watching short performances. The building layout is simple, with open foyer space and room to move around with buggies.
- Two contemporary art galleries with changing exhibitions
- On-site performance space (around 70 seats)
