The Butler Gallery Collection
The Butler Gallery Permanent Collection is a great source of
pride for the Gallery and for the people of Kilkenny. Achieving best
practice and Care of the Collection has been our priority over the past
number of years. Since 2005 the Collection has been safely housed
off-site in climate-controlled storage. We continue our long-term plan
of restoration and conservation of works that require attention, and
are grateful to the Heritage Council of Ireland for grants received to
help us fufill our dedication to minimizing change and maximizing the
longevity of this important Collection.
We aim to keep this diverse collection fluid, exhibited and
enjoyed by the public, and so in addition to our Annual Collection
Exhibition at the Butler, works from the Collection are loaned out to
several institutions around Kilkenny including St. Luke’s Hospital,
Kilkenny Education Centre and Kilkenny Carlow Local Radio. We have
developed an active Patron and Benefactor Loan Scheme that allows
businesses and individuals to borrow works from the Collection for a
year for a small fee. This enables people to enjoy some of our gems in
the comfort and privacy of an office or living room. Several works are
hanging in boardrooms in Dublin, in the Pembroke Hotel and Langton’s
Hotel in Kilkenny, and elsewhere. This scheme assists our
not-for-profit organization in raising much-needed funds. We are
grateful to all the participants.
