The Hunt Museum Design Brief 1. Communities of Culture Introduction the Hunt Museum Is Currently Developing an Active Community The Hunt Museum Design Brief 1. Communities of Culture Introduction The Hunt Museum is currently developing an active community arts and culture programme through outreach with a range of local groups. The purpose of outreach in museums is to actively encourage wider participation in cultural activities within local communities. As part of Limerick City of Culture, The Hunt Museum proposes to design, develop and deliver Communities of Culture, a programme exploring the different unique cultural experiences and heritages of each of Limerick’s regeneration areas – Southill, Ballinacurra Weston, Moyross and St Mary’s Park. Through a series of targeted community- and museum-based multi-workshop projects, Communities of Culture will support 8 groups (2 groups within each area) in expressing their unique stories and contribution to the cultural landscape of Limerick. The groups will be recruited from a variety of communities to ensure a wide range of perspectives and voices including young people, women, men, older people, ethnic minorities, migrants, and people with disabilities are present. Communities of Culture will also create opportunities for the general public in Regeneration areas to contribute to the overall programme through locally-held public events. The projects will culminate in 4 community-based pop-up style touring exhibitions highlighting the achievements, stories and heritage of each area through the lens of the groups involved as well as contributions from the wider community. These exhibitions will be launched within the ‘local’ Regeneration area and then tour to other community-based venues both within Regeneration areas and Limerick City/County during Limerick City of Culture and beyond. The Hunt Museum has obtained funding from the Social Interventions Fund and The Friends of The Hunt Museum for this. The aim of the Communities of Culture is to enable a diverse range of local groups to explore their history in an accessible and enjoyable way. It is anticipated that four of small community-based exhibitions and other interpretative projects will be developed in connection with this between now and September 2014. In connection with this project, we are consequently seeking an experienced and creative design company to undertake the design and production of the following: 2.

In today’s environment of mobile, financial and human capital, the focus of economic competition is increasingly on city regions. This trend is particularly significant for an open economy such as Ireland which is competing in a global market for investment and talent. In 2014 Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council amalgamated into one body - Limerick City & County Council. As outlined in the Limerick 2030 Vision: An Economic and Spatial Plan for Limerick report, the objective of this merger was to extend the city boundary to include urbanised parts of the county and was seen as a ‘once in a generation opportunity’ to drive new levels of employment and economic growth. In May 2017 Limerick City & County Council (LC&CC) appointed EY-DKM Economic Advisory Services (formerly DKM Economic Consultants) with MCJ Lemagnen Associates Ltd. (MCJ Lemagnen) to undertake an Economic Profile report of Limerick city (including suburbs as defined by the CSO) and county.

The Physical Programme is at this stage indicative only and very much a ‘work in progress’. The details of the various projects proposed will need to be flexible and in a position to respond to the changes that occur within the fluid environment which they operate. From a land-use and planning perspective, matters are changing on a regular basis, for example the Regional Planning Guidelines are due for review shortly as are some of the relevant local authority Delmege Estate Development Plans. In addition the changing economic and social circumstances of the country may have some implications for population growth and development options which may in turn impact on the approaches taken with regard to Regional Development. Therefore as we move forward this Regeneration Programme must continue to complement the strategies and different elements of the various National, Regional and local levels as outlined in table 1 (page 19). 5.1.1.1 Introduction Moyross Chapter 3 set out the Social Regeneration element of this programme and Chapter 4 has dealt with the economic proposals to underpin these. This Physical Programme deals with the buildings, spaces and environment in which these programmes will be grounded and on which they depend to achieve the transformation of Moyross.

  • Behind the Headlines: Media Coverage of Social Exclusion in Limerick City – the Case of Moyross
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by University of Limerick Institutional Repository Behind The Headlines: Media Coverage of Social Exclusion in Limerick City – The Case of Moyross Eoin Devereux, Amanda Haynes and Martin J. Power Introduction 1 In a media setting, and within the public mind, Ireland’s ‘Third City’ has acquired an intensely negative reputation over time. While there are many historical precedents for the maligning of the place’s image, it is generally agreed that the 1980s reached a new low within media practice with the ascription, in some media quarters, of the label ‘Stab City’ to Limerick. The blanket representation of Limerick as a place of crime, social disorder, poverty and social exclusion has continued and it has been amplified in recent years, particularly in the context of the feuds between rival drugs gangs, most of which have been played out in the city’s marginalized local authority estates such as Moyross, St. Mary’s Park, Southill and Ballinacurra Weston. Understandably, a variety of interest groups have expressed concern over the ways in which Limerick generally and marginalized areas in particular have been misrepresented by the mass media 2. Our focus in this chapter is not on the veracity or not of individual stories about Limerick, but rather our task is to get behind the headlines and to examine, in detail, the making of media messages concerning one socially excluded area in Limerick City, namely Moyross. We focus on the role of print and broadcast media professionals in the (mis)representation of this area.
