Museum extends an invitation to the public

Limerick City Gallery of Art launches its new enhanced exhibition spaces this evening, writes Tina O’Sullivan

LIMERICK City Gallery of Art’s renovation of its gallery and dynamic new extension are of the 21st century.

The development was funded by the department of Arts, Heritage and Gaeltacht through Access II and Limerick City Council. LCGA is housed in the Carnegie Building, which was built as a library and museum, with funding from Irish-American philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. The building has now been extended on three sides, while the gallery collection was re-housed during construction.
