OCCUPY SPACE’S VENUE IS NOW CLOSED, BUT OCCUPY SPACE (THE ORGANISATION) IS CONTINUING TO ORGANISE EVENTS AROUND LIMERICK

Occupy Space is Limerick’s newest exhibition space, located on Thomas Street. It has been set up to facilitate an ever expanding need for artistic exhibition spaces in limerick. It is an artist led project, run by members of Wickham Street Studios on a voluntary basis. Occupy Space is committed to delivering a relentlessly energetic programme of exhibitions and events.

Our intention is that this space will be a central axis for a huge variety of creative people to experiment and present their work. The organization will encourage openness and accessibility to artists and the visiting public alike, and aims to provide an open solid platform for the visual arts. Our program will involve hosting exhibitions of emerging and established artists, with a strong emphasis on exhibiting those based in limerick. Occupy space will also host other artist led projects such as artists talks, seminars and collaborative events with other creative practitioners and organizations.
