About this event
Dublin Port Company presents Soft Values of Seaports, a landmark exhibition at The Substation marking a decade of cultural, community, heritage and environmental projects that have brought Dublin Port and the city closer together. Beginning with the 2015 restoration of the Diving Bell, the exhibition showcases initiatives in theatre, film, heritage and music that have created lasting connections between the port, the river and Dubliners. Visitors can explore panels and screenings revisiting highlights from the past ten years. A special screening programme runs throughout the exhibition, with weekly themes from theatre and music to port history and community.
Open Wednesday to Saturday, 11am – 3pm, until 11 October 2025.
