Creative Cavan

_{Creative Ireland 2023-2027}

The Creative Ireland Programme is an all-of-government initiative committed to enhancing access to, engagement with, and enjoyment of Ireland's culture and creativity.  

County Cavan is a haven for culture and creativity, boasting a collaborative and community-minded approach to the development of the arts that has produced such notable figures as 18th-century poet Cathal Buí Mac Giolla Ghunna ("Yellow Cathal McElgunn") and, more recently, celebrity chef and author Neven Maguire.  The opportunity embraced within the Cavan Culture and Creativity Strategy 2023-2027 is to support people's participation, inclusion and expression within communities and further strengthen local creative economies.

Creative Cavan are delivering on an extensive range of events and activities in partnership with wide range of organisations to deliver new initiatives.  Drawing on Shared Island Funding through Creative Ireland has allowed the deliver to expand across the border into Northern Ireland.
