Welcome to Dragon's Fire Cafe where there are lots of staff, some demanding customers and an unexpected visit from the Health Inspectors!

On Friday 7 Feb at 12pm, multidisciplinary artist Grainne O’Carroll invites pregnant folk to participate in a free event at The Ark.

The Ark Access for Schools programme is a targeted programme to bridge the gap between those who have regular access to the arts and those who don’t.

Check out our box office opening hours over the festive period at The Ark!

The Ark were selected as Young People, Children, and Education (YPCE) Artists in Residence for the academic year 2024/'25, funded by The Arts Council. Students from DCU’s Professional Master of Education (Primary Teaching) course joined artists from The Ark in St Patrick’s Campus this semester for workshops showing how art, drama, and music can be integrated in lessons around climate change with artists Jane Groves, Ríona Sally Hartman, and Joanna Parkes. Take a read of Joanna's blog below about her experience.

We are delighted to announce two new senior appointments to The Ark team - Programme Producer Kelly Phelan and Marketing & Visitor Services Manager Clodagh Mooney Duggan.
