How do we
Rather Gather?
Festivals
Rather Gather Festivals and collaborations with bigger festivals are always focused on cross-cultural collaboration.
At Rather Gather we work tirelessly to ensure that diverse artists and arts lovers are represented. We help artists run their events and workshops and foster through peer mentoring, skill sharing and application assistance a healthy diverse network for Artists and arts lovers to support each other.
We often hear issues in Ireland related to the lack of spaces, diversity, visibility and underground arts. We believe healthier gathering methods can arise by increasing the strength and reach of our collaborative network. That's why we need you. Whatever your skills are, they are welcome. If you are an artist or arts lover. If you believe in the power of arts to build communities and bring people together and if you want to be part of a collaborative network join us. Rather Gather and needs you!
Our Artists
We collaborate with artists, arteians, arts workers and arts lovers alike. We are not hirarchical in our approach and count on Poets, Circus Artists, Musicians, Movie Makers, Performers and Designers in our Network to share their work and create new work with us or new collaborators.
