| ABOUT US
The Leitrim Sculpture Centre is a national resource organisation providing artists, working in all mediums, with space, technical facilities and assistance to develop new work, undertake professional development or conduct study and research projects.
We are especially interested in supporting innovative and experimental practices that link the resources of the centre with various social and environmental contexts and those projects exploring specific technical processes and their combination in the making of new work.
The centre hosts national and international artists in residence, master classes, site-specific projects, symposia and exhibitions whilst supporting community opportunities through workshops, training and education projects.
We are active in promoting artists work through a range of public events, commissions and gallery exhibitions as well as providing opportunities for national and international artists and curators to exhibit or work at the centre.
