Thanks for stopping by… http://www.artsmanagement.ie is aimed at folks interested in the area of arts management in Ireland and further afield. It is linked with the School of Art History & Cultural Policy at University College Dublin (in particular the MA programme in Arts Management and Cultural Policy), and is written & maintained by a current Associate Professor and former Head of School (that’s me, Emily Mark-FitzGerald!). I’ve helped run the MA in Arts Management & Cultural Policy since 2003, and this blog is an outgrowth of that work! I’ve previously been a board member and Chair of Arts and Disability Ireland (2017-23), and represented art history on the Historical Studies Committee of the Royal Irish Academy (2014-23); for nine years I also served as one of the Directors of the Irish Museums Association (2009-18).

For those working professionally in arts management in Ireland (especially alumni and current students from our programme), I hope the posting of event notices, links and job announcements will prove a useful resource.
