Art Take Part

If you want to paint, dance, carve, sing, be festive, write, make music, weave, be dramatic, quilt, arrange flowers, make a model or throw a pot and don’t know where to start we think we can help you.

Art Take Part is an online internet guide providing people with information about the many local arts activities they can take part in. Everybody can find arts activities to try with our easy to use search facility. Type in an area or an art form and press the button.

Still can’t find what you’re looking for?

We can give you advice about who to talk to whether it’s your Local Arts Officer or an arts membership organisation. Contact us at info@arttakepart.org.

Perhaps one of our Art Take Part groups can offer you the opportunity to get involved, not only in your chosen art form, but with people who are passionate about their art. We hope you will be pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality of arts opportunities that voluntary arts groups, arts centres and individuals are providing.

If you are comfortable with social networking try our Facebook and Twitter pages to make connections with the expanding Art Take Part community. A simple question posted on Facebook or Twitter can reap surprising results and provides access to the latest news about what’s happening across all of Ireland.

By making it easy for the people offering arts activities to connect with the people wanting to take part in arts activities we hope that everyone who wants to be creative will be able to take the first step towards participating in their chosen art.

Art Take Part is an initiative of Voluntary Arts Ireland and Culture Northern Ireland.
