Meet the Founder
A Passion for Art & Connection
Canvas & Craic was born from a simple belief: that everyone deserves moments of joy, creativity, and genuine human connection.
Founded by Niamh Aughney, a Dublin native now living in the heart of Tipperary, Canvas & Craic brings the warmth of Irish hospitality together with the magic of creative expression.
Niamh is not just an event host — she's an accomplished artist whose work has been exhibited across the globe, including the iconic Times Square in New York City. Her creativity has quite literally reached new heights: Niamh's artwork is part of the MoonMars Museum, the first gallery on the Moon, which landed at Mare Crisium on March 2, 2025. Her pixels are now part of space history.
"I've seen firsthand how a paintbrush and a glass of wine can break down barriers, spark conversations, and create memories that last a lifetime. Whether it's a corporate team discovering new talents or a care home resident rediscovering the joy of colour — that's what drives me every day."
