Volunteering
Would you like to volunteer in the arts here in Kerry? To play your part in sustaining and promoting our theatre and arts centre?
Be a Volunteer
Volunteering is one of the ways people may contribute to the work of Siamsa Tíre.
From time to time, and subject to organisational capacity and operational requirements, we may facilitate a small number of work experience placements and internship opportunities across the year.
These placements are typically offered to Transition Year students or to students undertaking certain third-level programmes where a placement forms part of their course requirements.
Where placements are accommodated, participants may have the opportunity to observe different areas of the organisation, shadow staff members, and assist with appropriate administrative or practical tasks, depending on departmental activity and scheduling at the time of placement. Contact us at geraldine@siamsatire.com for details.
We’re looking forward to meeting you!
Work Experience Placements
Volunteering in the arts is just one way in which you can make your contribution to the team at Siamsa Tíre. We also offer work experience placement and internship opportunities.
The work experience placements we host are usually part of the transition year programme offered in fourth year at secondary school. These placements are designed to give teenagers a general understanding of the workplace.
If you do your work experience placement with us, you can expect to shadow various members of staff, observing their work and helping them with simple tasks. Who knows? It might just be the start of a long career working in the arts!

Be a Volunteer
Every one of us at Siamsa Tíre knows that we are where we are in our professional lives today thanks to those who educated, encouraged, and mentored us along the way.
We recognise that it is our responsibility to find and nurture the next generation of skilled artists and venue and industry workers. People who may one day work with Siamsa Tíre or go on to roles elsewhere in Ireland or internationally. People who will bring their fresh energy and unique perspective to the world of the arts.
If you are interested in completing an internship with us, we would love to hear from you.
