The Moth Studios

The Moth Studios is an arts venue in Cavan Town, County Cavan, that brings together an exhibition space, a teaching studio and a literary salon under one roof. It is also home to the office of The Moth, an international arts and literature magazine, giving the place a strong connection to both the visual arts and the written word.

The studios run a programme of weekly drop-in sessions, including open studio hours, painting and drawing classes, portraiture and a writing group. These are complemented by occasional workshops covering a wide range of subjects, from writing for sketch comedy to singing, so the mix of activities changes through the year.

Sitting close to the centre of Cavan Town, the venue is within easy walking distance of the local bus station, making it straightforward to reach on a day out. Alongside its classes and exhibitions, The Moth Studios also supports artists through a residency scheme, offering time and space to develop new work in a shared creative setting.
