Creative Ireland

The Creative Ireland Programme is delivered in partnership with local authorities across Ireland through its Creative Communities pillar. This partnership enables citizens and communities to explore their culture and creativity at local level and, where appropriate, leverage that creativity to strengthen wellbeing, advance social cohesion and support economic development.

Kildare’s Creative Communities programme is led by the Culture and Creativity Team, which includes representatives from a variety of departments such as arts, library, local history, heritage, climate, and community. Together with our strategic partners, we work collaboratively to deliver a programme of interdisciplinary events, initiatives and bursaries. The programme of work is guided by Kildare’s Culture and Creativity Strategy 2023-2027 .
