At its monthly meeting last night, the Limerick City of Culture board finally agreed to advertise the position of Director of City of Culture within the next week. Acting chief executive Mike Fitzpatrick will continue in his role while this process is being finalised.
The board also welcomed Limerick City Council’s decision to lead the city’s bid on the pre-selection phase of the European Capital of Culture 2020 designation.
The bid will form part of the legacy programme of Limerick National City of Culture and will involve additional recruitment to work on behalf of Limerick City Council in conjunction with the City of Culture team on the project.
