Imagine Arts Festival is committed to artists and artform development through a diverse a multi-disciplinary programme of curated events.
Our Mission
Our Mission is to continue to develop the scale and ambition of our Festival, growing our confidence, the understanding of our impact and our reputation while achieving the following:
To identify and present contemporary, imaginative and provocative new work made by Irish and international artists with a focus on platforming Waterford artists.
To create a multidisciplinary festival that evokes curiosity and creates memorable encounters that enthral and embolden audiences.
To offer a framework for artistic risk, offering year-round support to artists across disciplines to challenge and invigorate their practice, and to extend the possibilities of what art can be.
Keeping in line with our mission we are asking for artists to submit their proposals for our 2025 Festival.
Please submit through the button here.
The 2025 Festival will look at the theme of “Create”. We wish for this theme to permeate through the programme and so we ask each proposing artist to bear the theme in mind when submitting.
Bear in mind that due to the nature of the 2025 theme; we also welcome ideas that are not fully formed but are in need of cross pollination with other disciplines and artists. We are happy to guide you in this process.
