The KCAT artist studio is located on the first floor of our building. It is the permanent creative home to 14 professional visual artists.

Studio Artists are supported by mentors and a facilitator in all aspects of their professional development. There is a strong sense of community and mutual support between artists and mentors, which extends beyond the walls of the studio. Working individually, all share, inspire and motivate each other.

The studio artists have produced, collaborated and been part of many extraordinary projects in Kilkenny and far beyond. Many are represented in national collections and have shown regularly at some of the most established galleries and institutions at home and abroad. Working individually, all share, inspire and motivate each other. The group has executed commissions and exhibited in Australia, Japan, the United States and a number of European countries. They have collaborated on projects with other arts organisations and continually advocated their own work and that of KCAT
