About the Business

Void is a contemporary art space with up to 6 exhibitions per year showing the work of established international and Irish artists. A key element to the gallery is the Void Engage programme, which places participation, engagement and learning at the heart of Void, making contemporary visual art accessible to visitors of all ages.

In January 2003, a group of artists in Derry formed (DADA) Derry's Artists for Derry's Art with a vision of creating a contemporary art space with the remit of showing established Irish and international artists. The vision for this space included artists' studios and a high quality education programme delivering an organisational ideology of 'supporting artists at every stage of their career.'

The group secured Peace II funding through the Local Strategy Partnership and spent the next two years building the project, formulating an initial exhibition programme and supervising the refurbishment of the basement of the Old City Shirt Factory.
