OUGHTERARD COURTHOUSE ARTS PROGRAMME
Welcome to the Oughterard Courthouse Arts Programme
Each summer, the Oughterard Courthouse Arts Programme (OCAP) presents a season of contemporary art exhibitions in the restored Courthouse at the centre of the village of Oughterard. Through invited projects and open calls, the programme brings together a wide range of artistic practices, supporting both emerging and established artists.
As the winter months settle in, work continues quietly behind the scenes. This is our time to reflect on the past season, gather ideas, and shape the programme that will unfold in the summer ahead. Like the stillness of the landscape in winter, there is activity beneath the surface—new proposals are being welcomed, considered, and encouraged. We look forward to sharing the next chapter in 2026.
