Mullingar Arts Centre

The Arts Centre provides workshops in Art, Music, Dance/Ballet, Crafts, Drama ( for adults, children, disadvantaged and those with special needs). The Centre is all inclusive. During 1999 all art forms were presented in the Centre and the Centre proved to be a focal point for arts in the midlands in a short space of time.

Mullingar Arts Centre has as it's main mission the education of children into the whole area of the Arts. An innovative approach has been taken in this area. It is the policy of the Centre to provide buses for rural school children to all children's events free of charge. The Centre organises the buses and shows for the schools. The Arts Centre has also initiated an Arts Education Programme which was initially targeted towards rural schools.
