Description:

Wickham Street Studios invites the public into one of Limerick city’s artist-led studio spaces for its Culture Night ‘Open Studio’ event 2026. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the working studios of sixteen contemporary artists and experience a wide range of artworks across painting, drawing, collage, sculpture, photography, printmaking, installation, and interdisciplinary practice.

The event offers a chance to encounter contemporary art within the context of its making, allowing audiences to meet artists, learn about their creative practices, and engage directly with the work in an informal and welcoming setting. Both completed artworks and works in progress will be on view throughout the evening.

This event will provide insight into an innovative, creative environment and highlight the role of Wickham Street Studios as an active creative space within Limerick city. Artwork will also be available for purchase, supporting local artists and contemporary arts practice.

Light refreshments will be provided and all are welcome to attend.

Additional information about accessibility:

Wickham Street Studios is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all visitors attending Culture Night 2026. The event is free to attend and open to audiences of all ages, backgrounds, and levels of familiarity with contemporary art.

The Open Studios format allows visitors to move through the space at their own pace and engage with artworks and artists in an informal, low-pressure setting. The event is suitable for individuals who are neurodivergent or who may prefer quieter, self-directed cultural experiences, with no requirement for prior arts knowledge or participation.

The event is largely non-language dependent, as audiences can engage visually with the artworks throughout the studios. Artists and organisers will be available throughout the evening to support visitors and facilitate engagement where required.

Please note that the building currently does not have wheelchair access due to architectural limitations. At present, sign language interpretation
