Welcome to Limerick Printmakers
A vibrant printmaking studio and creative space located in the heart
of Limerick City’s cultural quarter. Established in 1999, LP is a leading Irish fine art print studio that supports artistic development
and innovation through the provision of high quality facilities
in printmaking and photography, while also promoting additional learning and career opportunities for printmakers.
Our Vision
Limerick Printmakers
– An epicentre for printmaking, community and creative experiences.
Our Mission
Limerick Printmakers is a community of creative practitioners
that influence, support and promote printmaking and tangible creative experiences.
We do this by providing high calibre facilities and maker spaces,
and through exhibition, residency, education and community engagement programmes.
LP is a member-focused printmaking studio and creative space that supports the goals of both individual printmakers and the wider artistic community through the provision of a wide range of high quality printmaking resources in a co-operative environment. In addition, LP strives to facilitate the maximum amount of opportunities for diverse audiences to engage in the experience of printmaking in an active and inclusive environment.
To this end, the studio is committed to delivering an annual education programme for all ages and abilities, a varied exhibition programme that is reflective of the artists it supports and represents, an annual student bursary award, unique printmaking projects, national and international collaborations with other print studios and institutions, alongside a community engagement programme that fully maximizes the potential of LP’s mobile printmaking facilities.
The studio has been an integral part of the cultural landscape of the mid west since its establishment in 1999. LP delivers community focused programming for diverse audiences that centres on inclusive learning, participation and collaboration through printmaking. LP’s aim is to increase awareness, understanding, and enjoyment of this expansive and vital artform. The board and staff of Limerick Printmakers respectfully acknowledge the continued support of both The Arts Council of Ireland and Limerick City and County Council.
