The TULCA Education Team welcomes community groups to participate in our gallery tours as part of TULCA 2025. These tours are open to local residents, cultural organisations, youth groups, and other non-academic participants who are interested in engaging with contemporary art.

These tours are participant-led, fostering open discussions that focus on personal interpretation of the artworks, the spaces they inhabit, and the artists intentions. No prior knowledge of art is required. If your group has a specific theme or focus, please let us know when booking, and we will incorporate it into the discussion.

Group bookings for community organisations are available every day of the festival, with tours running every hour from 9am to 4pm. The tour duration is 45 minutes. Advanced booking is required.

Capacity: No minimum, maximum 40 per group (subject to venue capacity)
Age: Late primary school level and above.

Bookings: To make a booking, please contact Aoife Natsumi Frehan, Education Coordinator, at education@tulca.ie

Access: The TULCA Education team is based in the TULCA Gallery, Hynes Building during the festival.

  • Tours can be arranged for other TULCA Galleries (each venue has its own capacity and accessibility).

  • Visit our Access Page for more info.

  • We are committed to ensuring all tours are accessible.

  • Please inform us of any specific access needs when booking.
