The Linenhall currently has a core staff of six. As a tight-knit team we all do a little bit of everything, which of course means that we can always blame someone else if the job doesn’t get done.

Marie Farrell is the Director of the Linenhall and she has been involved with it since its inception in 1986. Her qualifications in Microbiology and Biochemistry have proved invaluable to her in her pursuit of the excellent in arts programming.

Maura Connolly joined the team in 1990. She has now reached the lofty heights of Administrator, and foolishly insists that she still enjoys working here.

Frank Herraghty is our Technical Manager. A former Garda with a long-time involvement in the Irish drama circuit and current Chairperson of An Comhlachas Náisiúnta Drámaíochta, he is never far from a ladder and a strong ‘tay’.

Oisín Herraghty (no relation!) is our dynamic Buildings Manager. His experience in theatre/stagecraft and catering makes him the ideal addition to our diverse, dedicated and doughty crew.

Ian Wieczorek is our PR Officer. The man with the verbals (although the ointment does appear to be working), a(nother) former microbiologist, freelance journalist and sometime art critic, he is responsible for getting the word out there.

Orla Henihan is our new Arts Access Officer. An ethnomusicologist (!), Orla will be instrumental (geddit?) in developing and promoting our arts programme in the community.It also looks like Orla is going to get us organized at last, despite our best efforts!
