Kildare County Arts Officer


The Kildare County Arts Officer co-ordinates the Arts Service, on behalf of Kildare County Council. Although independent in itself, the Arts Service integrates with the Library Service to ensure cohesion of shared cultural policies.

The active county-wide arts programme includes a Music Outreach programme, Arts in Schools programmes, exhibitions, readings, recitals, support for the Kildare County Orchestra, touring theatre etc., combined with a number of community-based arts initiatives. The Arts - in - Libraries programme includes author visits, children's Summer Arts Festival and World Book Week Festival, art appreciation lectures and music recitals. These programmes provide the medium through which people become familiar with, practice and promote cultural awareness.
