At Galway Arts Centre · 47 Dominick Street Lower, Galway City, County Galway
Only the published dates are confirmed for this programme.
Curator Melanie Lynch gives a talk on Borneo x Ireland Cultural Exchange at Galway Arts Centre on Thursday, 15 October 2026, from 7pm to 8pm.
Lynch gives a visual presentation exploring the exhibition’s photographic work and the partnership linking Dayak communities in Borneo with Irish forest schools in Clare and Connemara. The talk sits alongside the wider Borneo x Ireland Cultural Exchange exhibition, which runs at the centre from 9 to 18 October and brings together photographic portraits, Dayak beaded jewellery, headdresses, masks and weaving. Lynch’s talk itself runs for one hour as part of the centre’s Gallery Lates programme, and while it is free to attend, the venue asks people to book ahead. Galway Arts Centre’s galleries are free to visit during normal opening hours across the rest of the exhibition’s run, so anyone who cannot make the talk can still see the show itself.
Galway Arts Centre is at 47 Dominick Street Lower, Galway City, County Galway.
Galway is a city that still feels like a village underneath, a grid of medieval laneways running from Shop Street to Quay Street and lined with pubs and craft shops, with the old Claddagh fishing village folded into its western edge. Boats to the three Aran Islands also leave from Rossaveal, forty minutes west, if you want to build a longer trip around the visit. See more in Galway city, or browse everything on in County Galway.
