About
The Irish Aerial Creation Centre is Ireland’s first purpose-fitted space for aerial dance. We offer space to professional artists and run community classes in aerial circus.
Vision
An Irish home for artistic excellence to flourish, creative collaborations to grow and for
people from all walks of life to learn to fly and allow their creativity to soar.
Mission
Our mission is to create a non-competitive environment for artists and communities to unlock
their own creativity to create, learn and upskill in aerial arts.
Background
The Irish Aerial Creation Centre opened in 2015. The IACC was championed, seed-funded and founded by Fidget Feet Aerial Dance Company as part of Fidget Feet’s long-standing commitment to a world class facility for the aerial arts in Ireland.
The IACC’s teaching grew to include community classes for adults and children, expanding the understanding, appreciation, and access to the artform to the general public.
The IACC is strategically funded by the Arts Council of Ireland, supported by Limerick City & County Council (LCCC), and receives funding from Creative Ireland through LCCC.
In a short time, the IACC has become a strategic cultural asset for the city and county. In 2017 the IACC was awarded a capital grant from The Department of Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs with match funding from LCCC to build the first National Aerial Dance Centre in Limerick, Ireland. This resulted in a renovation of the space in 2023 to be fully insulated and contain 3 separate spaces.
