Our Vision with Creative Ireland is to design, drive and deliver a strategy that transforms Galway City into a working model of cultural sustainability, community participation, best practice and world class cultural and creative experiences.

The Galway city delivery model of cultural sustainability, community participation, best practice and world-class cultural and creative experiences will be underpinned through:
- Highlighting our cultural assets, putting culture at the heart of Galway’s development and using culture to examine new ways of creating a better future.
- Embracing communities and diversity, finding room for all aspects of cultural identity and expression and new ways to collaborate and participate.
- Facilitating local, national and international collaborations and hubs, providing support and new sources of inspiration for projects, partnerships and infrastructure.
- Showcasing what Galway does best and delivering it to new audiences and participants.
