Something’s Brewing | Galway Voices: Stories from the Edge Part Five is now on YouTube 🥳
Part Five: Something’s Brewing follows Naoise, an aspiring producer in his early-mid 30s balancing a corporate day job with a quiet commitment to Galway’s arts community. By day, he deals with spreadsheets, budgets and forums. By night, he channels that same organisational instinct into creating space for artists, piecing together an open call for emerging youth voices in the Westend.
This final digital portrait reflects the cultural movements that often begin in the quiet corners of our local pubs, cafes or restaurants by someone willing to advocate and open doors for those around them. And more often than not, that’s all people need to feel inspired and get started.
