Through what we create, we communicate: who we are, our intentions and our aspirations—are we creative, innovative, considerate, open? We capture our moment in time, our understanding of and investment in the environment we create. The shapes and materials we choose to construct and furnish our built environment tell the evolving stories of the people that live in it and live with it.

Over the weekend October 6 to 8, there will be a programme of FREE events where people are encouraged to participate in exploring and learning about Limerick’s built environment through architect-guided and self-guided tours, walks, talks and exhibitions.

Full details of the buildings and events open to the public and their opening times are available from mid September at www.openhouselimerick.ie.
