Marking fifty years since punk emerged as a disruptive cultural force, TULCA 2026: Veruca Salt considers what it means to know who you are and know what you want. Curated by Sinéad Keogh, the festival approaches punk not as a fixed historical style, but as a living method rooted in DIY culture, collective action and self-determination.

At Galway Arts Centre, Veruca Salt brings together work by Peter Bradley, Diana Chambers, Rachel Garfield, Saidhbhín Gibson, Guggi, Shota Kotake, Breda Lynch, Katie Moore, Ciara Rodgers and Del LaGrace Volcano. Across film, photography, sculpture, painting and installation, the exhibition brings together established and emerging practices shaped by independence, experimentation and the refusal of prescribed roles.
