Every day we witness how theatre, dance, music and visual arts impact individuals, and we strive to break down barriers to create a welcoming, inclusive and positive space that everyone can enjoy. glór is a multi-disciplinary arts centre located in the heart of Ennis, Co Clare, housing a 505-seat theatre, a 60 seat Studio, a gallery, break out spaces, and a café. In addition to hosting local, nati
onal and international events (music, theatre, talks, festivals, dance, film, comedy, and visual arts), we also provide a welcoming space for community groups, families, and vulnerable members of society to meet and access the arts. In 2022 we celebrated 21 years in operation presenting over 300 performances and 9 visual arts exhibitions from local, national, and international artists as well as over 55 community groups. We endeavour to remove hindrances that prevent people from accessing the arts, support Clare artists so they can continue to create artistic works, and provide a space for community groups to meet.IN 2019, GASP (glór Arts for Schools Programme) helps over 1800 schoolchildren annually access the arts by reducing some of the financial obstacles in attending daytime performances at glór through subsidising tickets and transportation costs. We also run programmes that provide financial and creative support to artists in Clare – glór Associate Artists, Artists' Residencies, Bursaries, development space and times, commissions and and co-productions of work. Our Mission: To advance arts education in County Clare through the establishment of a national centre in Ennis Co.
