While we do not have the time to respond to every request, rest assured that all emails are considered and if we agree that the link is suitable, we will include it.
:: GET INVOLVED
We are currently looking for liaisons throughout the globe to help keep our database of international galleries, festivals, fairs, etc., up to date. We need a pair of eyes in every pocket of the globe - alerting us to newly established spaces or sadly, the dreaded closures. Would you like to be part of the team? Please contact us.

Catalyst Arts :: Belfast, Ireland
Formed over 13 years ago in response to what was seen as a cultural vacuum. Catalyst Arts is as an agency for promoting culturally engaged artistic endeavours on both a local and international basis. Catalyst Arts is Belfast's primary non-profit artist led organisation. As the name suggests, Catalyst Arts was envisioned as an agency that would act as a 'catalyst' cajoling, supporting and promoting culturally engaged artistic endeavours on a local, national and international basis.
Catalyst Arts is run by unpaid volunteers who are motivated by a passion for the arts and an intense interest in the cultural development of Belfast. Today Catalyst Arts has a reputation and proven track record as an organisation which consistently programs and supports artistic projects of a socially and culturally engaged nature. Aside from programming and supporting art projects, Catalyst Arts also facilitates and programmes talks, seminars, screenings and music events.
