From 31 MAY 2012 The Irish Museum of Modern Art's exhibitions programme will be based in two seperate locations- the New Galleries in the grounds of the Royal Hospital in Kilmainham and the ground floor exhibition spaces in the National Concert Hall building in Earlsfort Terrace. IMMA will also present its full range of tours and lectures and its children's, young people's, adult and education programmes in both locations.
The Irish Museum of Modern Art is Ireland's leading national institution for the collection and presentation of modern and contemporary art.
The Museum presents a wide variety of art in a dynamic programme of exhibitions, which regularly includes bodies of work from its own Collection and its award winning Education and Community Department.
It also creates more widespread access to art and artists through its Studio and National programmes.
The Museum is housed in the magnificent, 17th century Royal Hospital building, whose grounds include a formal garden, meadow and medieval burial grounds.
