Climate Inspirations Festival Launch

Join us for the launch event of the Climate Inspirations Festival for an evening of powerful storytelling and music. Acclaimed performer Rab will share captivating Celtic tales, accompanied by the evocative sounds of Three Rod Whale.

Don’t miss this inspiring blend of art, music, and climate conversation to open the festival!

The evening also includes a special exploration of The Air We Share, a major group exhibition developed through a year-long artist residency programme. Exploring air quality, climate, and our shared environment through artistic collaboration and community engagement in Galway, the exhibition features works by Christopher Steenson, Leon Butler, and the artist collective a place of their own (Sam Vardy and Paula McCloskey).

Over nine months, these artists have collaborated with scientists, residents, and community groups to creatively respond to real-world air pollution research and lived experience in Westside, Galway — deepening public understanding of air and its critical role in our shared environment.

The Air We Share is a recipient of the Creative Climate Action Fund, an initiative of the Creative Ireland Programme, funded by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media in collaboration with the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications.
