Mullingar Arts Centre

The Arts Centre provides workshops in Art, Music, Dance/Ballet, Crafts, Drama (for adults, children, disadvantaged and those with special needs). The Centre is all inclusive. During 1999 all art forms were presented in the Centre and the Centre proved to be a focal point for arts in the midlands in a short space of time.

Mullingar Arts Centre has as its main mission the education of children into the whole area of the Arts.

This programme covers all areas of the arts: Music, Art, Dance, Photography, Literature, Drama, technical aspects of theatre, including sound, lights, stage management etc.

All of these modules are provided by professionals who are active in the particular art stream.

School tours of the Centre incorporating the history of the area is also a great favourite with the children. The centre runs numerous classes in all art forms and provides community arts facilities for older people, those with special needs and the general public.

Mullingar Arts Centre proved in its first year of existence to be a truly cultural experience for all the people of the Midlands with unprecedented numbers visiting for various events and classes. It far outstripped even the highest expectations.
