The Yeats Building

The Yeats Building is centrally located on Hyde Bridge, in Sligo town centre, was donated to Yeats Society Sligo by the AIB Bank in 1973 as a memorial to the Yeats family.

This impressive building is the headquarters from which the Society keeps in contact with members all over the world, and from where the Yeats International Summer School and Winter School are administered, as well as the day-to-day running of the Society.

After 40 years, the Yeats Building continues to be a hub for literary culture and the arts.
