Projects Arts Center

Founded in 1966, the Project Arts Center has transitioned from a voluntary, artist-led organization into a nonprofit, multidisciplinary arts center. Situated on the cobbled streets of Temple Bar, PAC commissions and exhibits international visual artists. The institution also puts on experimental dance performances and hosts many festivals like the Dublin Writers Festival and the Dublin Theater Festival. Past performances have included Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” and John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. Fun fact: the center helped launch the careers of Liam Neeson and U2.
