The Galway-based literary organisation Over The Edge is to receive funding from the national Arts Council to support the literary events they organise in Galway City Library and at Sheridan’s Wine Bar.

Over The Edge organisers Susan Millar DuMars and Kevin Higgins said: “It’s great to have the Arts Council acknowledge the work we do. We’d like to thank everyone who has participated in, or in any way supported Over The Edge during these past three years. There is a really vibrant literary scene in Galway right now, by far the best in the country. The Arts Council’s decision to support Over The Edge will help us make it even better. We’re delighted.”
