Clare

The vision for Creative Ireland Clare is to “embed culture and creativity into the activities, sustainability and growth of our communities”. The Creative Ireland programme is delivered collaboratively by our Culture and Creativity Team representatives from the Arts, Heritage, Rural, Libraries, Archives, Biodiversity, Climate Action, Museum, Healthy Ireland and Local Enterprise Office of Clare County Council.

It is the intention of the Culture and Creativity Team to continue to nurture and develop the creative capacity of the communities across the county through cultural and creative programmes and projects that support well-being, quality of life and resilience.

The strategic priorities of the Clare Culture & Creativity Strategy 2023-2027 are to:
• Enrich Communities
• Celebrate Sense of Place and Belonging including the Irish Language
• Promote Creative Climate Action & Biodiversity
• Strengthen & Develop Creative Ireland’s Impact in County Clare
