The Tipperary Artist Directory, https://tipperaryarts.ie/, a new website showcasing professional Tipperary artists was launched this week by Gerard Darcy, Cathaoirleach of Tipperary County Council. 

This website is designed to act as a resource to promote the work of artists and arts practitioners living and/or working in Tipperary. The directory includes contact details, artist bios, images and links to websites and other work of Tipperary artists, across all art-forms, which can be used as a resource for festivals, curators, producers, collectors and collaborators.

Cathaoirleach Gerard Darcy described the Tipperary Artist Directory as a “fantastic initiative which will benefit artists, festivals and the community, and which showcases the artistic talent living and working across Tipperary in an easy to access format”. 

Melanie Scott, Arts Officer, said that ”she was delighted to see the artist directory launched this week. The directory will be invaluable in supporting our arts practitioners and enhance the possibilities of mutually beneficial collaborations. We are very fortunate to have an immensely talented pool of creatives here in Tipperary and we are excited to promote their work”.  

32 artists who have worked with the Arts Office at this pilot stage are currently showcased on the directory and we look forward to welcoming many more professional artists to the platform in the coming weeks. Artists can apply to join the platform through the website.

This directory was developed in a collaboration between Tipperary Arts Office and the Information Technology Department of Tipperary County Council and can be accessed at https://tipperaryarts.ie/ or by visiting the Arts section of the Tipperary County Council website.
