About IMMA Perspectives

IMMA Perspectives – A Creative Encounter is a partnership between IMMA, Dublin City Council and neurodivergent artists, Jody O’Neill and Dee Roycroft, working towards creating a Dublin where neurodivergent people can fully participate in and enjoy cultural experiences. From 12 to 16 of May 2025, selected professional neurodivergent artists (across a range of disciplines) will participate in a week-long series of bespoke workshops and seminars. This is an opportunity for selected artists to spend a concentrated period of time exploring their practice, identifying areas where they encounter challenges, and evolving practical solutions.

This launch is sponsored by Cultural and Creative Industries Skillnet.
