Dublin City Public Libraries and City Arts Office are working in partnership to pursue a phased expansion of a number of key Creative Hubs. Creative Hubs seek to sustain high quality arts experiences for children, schools and families to access in their Library and locality, through the development of enhanced educational, community and cultural partnership.

In October 2019, Dublin City Council, supported by Creative Ireland, invited submissions for a Visual Arts Exhibition Commission to be created for children, schools and families, and  located in the Exhibition room of Cabra Library for 6 weeks over March –  end April 2020.

Dublin City Creative Hubs initiative seeks to commission an engaging Visual Arts Exhibition specifically for children that will stimulate both their curiosity and imagination and provide  children (both within and outside of school ) with a quality experience of Visual Arts. 

Enriching their experience of the exhibition children will also participate in an associated learning programme with an experienced team of arts education curators and artist facilitators, in the lead-up and during the exhibition timeframe.

Please note that the details of events listed above are provided by the relevant Local Authorities.
