Green Party Councillor Donna Cooney said on Friday. “It’s coming from our awareness of a lack of cultural space in the area.”
Clongriffin might be ideal for the northeast’s new arts centre, said Cooney.
“We’re talking about the population increasing greater than anywhere... as large as Drogheda.”
The council has identified Clongriffin as potential site for a new cultural and artistic centre. A 2021 cultural infrastructure audit found that there was a big swathe of the northeast of the city that did not have any cultural buildings nearby.
