The board of Tullamore Community Arts Centre Ltd has announced its decision to alter its plans in the development of a new community arts centre for the town.

Sale agreed (subject to surveys and planning) has been achieved on the former Kilroy’s shop (beside Ulster Bank) on High Street, which will now house the arts centre bringing a much need redevelopment to High Street in Tullamore.

The decision comes following an exhaustive process to bring down the costs of the design for the arts centre on Kilbride Park in line with its budget of €3m. Developing a building in the town centre is now the most cost effective solution achievable within the budget available.
