The Galway City - Wellpark road building is located less than a mile from Galway city centre, on the main Monivea Road. The School of Design & Creative Arts is based in a former Redemptorist Monastery, which originally opened in 1940 to accommodate students training for the priesthood.  Remnants of this heritage are still to be found - the high ceilings, wide windows and spacious rooms give the revamped building an instant appeal, while the library is constructed with Irish oak using a distinct ecclesiastical theme.

This fusion of education and industry creates a unique and dynamic energy and makes this campus a hive of creative activity.  

Today, the building hosts the School of Design & Creative Arts which is a hive of creative activity, and specialises in courses in art & design, textiles, and film & documentary.
