With cultural spaces and studios being squeezed out of Dublin city centre due to rising rents, South Dublin County Council should become an advocate for creative practitioners and entrepreneurs and establish a creative cluster in Tallaght, to greatly expand on a proven and successful service already provided by the Council and Rua Red.
