Exchange Dublin

Exchange Dublin is a volunteer-run arts collective providing free gallery, exhibition and event space to local and visiting artists from NCAD, TCD, DCU, DIT and other colleges, individuals and community groups. Exchange Dublin holds discussions, gigs, visual arts and performance art, craft and dance workshops and anything else you can think of. There's a public collective meeting every wednesday at 7pm at which we programme and co-ordinate events in the space. All work is voluntary. Our aims are: To provide an alcohol-free, drug-free space in Dublin city centre that is open until late for people of all ages. To organise music, artistic and performance events with a strong emphasis on supporting the work of young people. To be an independent, non-commercial space run entirely by volunteers. To be a busy centre of activity and fresh ideas playing an important role in the cultural and political fabric of Dublin city. To encourage and provide a forum for political, social and philosophical discourse. To provide a centre for collaboration between creative young people. To encourage participation in decision making and day to day running of the space by members. To develop the skills of all those involved through workshops, skill share and constructive peer critique. To have a fun time doing all of the above.
