How We Move is a new collaborative project between Kildare Arts Service and Kildare Sports Partnership, taking place in autumn 2025.

This project explores the meeting of arts and sports through movement.  'Movement zones' will pop up in public spaces across Kildare, that will be ‘activated’ through a series of fun, creative and active interventions. The aims of demarcating these movement zones is to ‘give permission’ to move differently in public space.  Drawing mindful attention to our own physicality, how we move and how we hold ourselves at all levels of sporting ability, whether that be through a pop-up dance performance, the skipping of young children, or the straightened posture of a busy commuter on their way to catch the train. 

How We Move seeks to be a fun, interactive, intergenerational and accessible response to Creative Ireland Kildare's key strategic priority of enhancing wellbeing through creative participation across programmes that support mental and physical health. 

How We Move creates opportunities to reach new audiences and bridge gaps between artistic and sporting groups in the community through a series of workshops and public facing events.
