Galway Arts Centre has a long history of sharing our building and resources with a range of local groups and individuals. Inspired by CCA Glasgow’s Open-Source Policy, Galway Arts Centre will formalise its approach to programming its performance venue at Nuns Island Theatre.
What is Open Source Programming?

Simply put, open source programming means Galway Arts Centre shares our building and resources with artists, individuals and organisations who are in receipt of minimal funding.
What We Offer:
- Performance space at Nuns Island Theatre is available for artists and organisations
- Technicians and Front of House staff services are available at cost, with Galway Arts Centre taking no profit
- If organisations have additional funding we will charge for the space at a subsidised rate.
- What Kinds of Projects Are Eligible? Artistic programmes that engage with contemporary arts will be prioritised, alongside the overall balance of disciplines and artforms to be presented.
- Each event and every partner programme must be proposed to Galway Arts Centre for consideration by our programming team.
Further information on this initiative will be available in 2023.
