Shape the Future of the Kerry Writers’ Museum

With a focus on storytelling, visual arts, and public participation, Kerry Writers Museum’s new projects are offering fresh opportunities for creatives, visitors, and literature enthusiasts to connect with the Museum in meaningful ways.

A Platform for Voices & Perspectives

The Museum is launching a dedicated blog section on its website, providing a platform for local poets, writers, and creatives to share their unique perspectives on Kerry's literary landscape, culture, and storytelling traditions. 

Contributors will have the opportunity to gain exposure, support cultural heritage, and promote their own work while being featured on one of Kerry’s most cherished cultural platforms. 

Writers are invited to submit blog posts on topics such as the influence of Kerry's landscape, reflections on literary traditions, or insights into their creative processes.

Those interested in contributing can contact kerrywritersmuseumevents@gmail.com

Women in Literature Exhibition

In an exciting development, Kerry Writers' Museum is inviting visual artists to submit work for a new, permanent exhibition entitled Women in Literature. 

Artists submitting are encouraged to explore themes related to the lives and works of the remarkable women who have influenced and contributed to Kerry's literary heritage. It is aimed that the exhibition will offer fresh interpretations of these themes through various artistic media.

The initiative, led by Drake Hourigan Architects and supported by Kerry County Council under the Rural Regeneration Programme, seeks to create an enhanced experience while preserving the Museum’s charm and cultural significance.
