With a wealth of historic castles, houses and monuments, Galway East resounds to the
echoes of the past...
Galway 2020
represents the legacy of decades of artistic endeavour and investment in the
culture of this place. It is a climax of everything that has gone before and a
stepping-stone to a future that will leave an improved cultural infrastructure
and heightened awareness of the role of culture in society; a society that
appreciates the role of its artists and the possibilities that they bring. This
exciting year provides extraordinary opportunities for local people to create
and participate in something beyond their wildest expectations.
