Announcing Artists Selected for 2025 Festival Mentoring
The four artists who will take part this year are Amélie Clonan, Aoife Sweeney O’Connor, Eimear Hussey and Nessa Matthews.
If I Could Change The World
As part of Creating Space, a two-year project with Merlin Woods Primary School, the school children presented their exhibition “If I Could Change The World” at Atlantic Technological University.
The exhibition included a short movie capturing their thoughts and feelings which was presented to their families as part of the event.
2024 Year in Review
We invite you to look back at an incredible 2024 at Baboró.
From the thrill of a 10 festival reaching almost 16,000 children, families and schools to year-round projects that engaged over 300 children.
Baboró is for Everyone!
Baboró is Galway's annual festival dedicated to children and their families. It takes place each year in October. Subscribe to our newsletter below for the latest programme announcements.
Support Baboró
Many families and schools do not have the means to access the arts.
Baboró works to address this barrier by subsidising tickets to our annual festival from a production cost of €35 per person to €10 and less (2024 festival subsidised by 81%). We also run free events, free workshops and provide free tickets to underrepresented communities.
Your support maintains this subsidised ticket price for all children and provides free tickets to teachers, carers and disadvantaged communities.
