All-Ireland Performing Arts Conference 2014: Hard Questions, Our Answers Northern Ireland Theatre Association (NITA) and Theatre Forum present #APAC14

5-6 June, 2014

Whether you’re an individual artist or managing a venue, a performing arts freelancer or working in a funded arts organisation, this year’s conference is about your concerns and our community.  It's time for hard truths, some imaginative thinking but most of all, about creating a platform, where despite and because of our varied interests and experiences, we can come together.

The hard questions we’ve been asking and the challenges we’re facing will be answered with some realistic, achievable and visionary possibilities.  Bright minds, stories to inspire, delight, provoke and rally you will come from far flung cities and our own back yards.  Be ready to interrogate, ignite and bring these possibilities to life.  Whether you’re a maker or a shaker, your voice and answers are needed to shape the way ahead.

The Lime Tree Theatre is the main conference venue. Limerick City of Culture 2014 will host an evening reception in the Kerry Group Cleeve's Factory, home to EVA International – Ireland’s Biennial, followed by the evening programme in the City’s historic Milk Market. Registration starts from 12.00 on Thursday 5 June and the conference will close on Friday 6 June at 15.45 to facilitate delegates travelling to and from Limerick.
