The People Build at Galway International Arts Festival saw not just one but two large-scale structures appear in a matter of hours built solely from cardboard. Under the guidance of French artist, Olivier Grossetete and his team, The People Build saw over 600 volunteers and members of the general public transform cardboard boxes into a church steeple and a bridge. This spectacular architectural event won the hearts of festival audiences and encouraged a sense of community where everyone could get involved. The structure built at Eyre Square was inspired by St. Nicholas’ Church in Galway and the bridge at Waterside was positioned at the location of Galway’s River Corrib Viaduct, once part of the famous Galway to Clifden Railway.<br />
<br />
It is estimated that almost 4 tonnes of cardboard were used across the two builds. Following the constructions, children and grown-ups alike joined forces in a massive celebratory demolition, which saw the cardboard structures come tumbling down amidst shrieks of joy and delight.<br />

The People Build at Galway International Arts Festival saw not just one but two large-scale structures appear in a matter of hours built solely from cardboard. Under the guidance of French artist, Olivier Grossetete and his team, The People Build saw over 600 volunteers and members of the general public transform cardboard boxes into a church steeple and a bridge. This spectacular architectural event won the hearts of festival audiences and encouraged a sense of community where everyone could get involved. The structure built at Eyre Square was inspired by St. Nicholas’ Church in Galway and the bridge at Waterside was positioned at the location of Galway’s River Corrib Viaduct, once part of the famous Galway to Clifden Railway.<br />
<br />
It is estimated that almost 4 tonnes of cardboard were used across the two builds. Following the constructions, children and grown-ups alike joined forces in a massive celebratory demolition, which saw the cardboard structures come tumbling down amidst shrieks of joy and delight.<br />

Under the guidance of French artist, Olivier Grossetete and his team, The People Build saw over 600 volunteers and members of the general public transform cardboard boxes into a church steeple and a bridge. This spectacular architectural event won the hearts of festival audiences and encouraged a sense of community where everyone could get involved. The structure built at Eyre Square was inspired by St. Nicholas’ Church in Galway and the bridge at Waterside was positioned at the location of Galway’s River Corrib Viaduct, once part of the famous Galway to Clifden Railway.<br />
<br />
It is estimated that almost 4 tonnes of cardboard were used across the two builds. Following the constructions, children and grown-ups alike joined forces in a massive celebratory demolition, which saw the cardboard structures come tumbling down amidst shrieks of joy and delight.<br />

Under the guidance of French artist, Olivier Grossetete and his team, The People Build saw over 600 volunteers and members of the general public transform cardboard boxes into a church steeple and a bridge. This spectacular architectural event won the hearts of festival audiences and encouraged a sense of community where everyone could get involved. The structure built at Eyre Square was inspired by St. Nicholas’ Church in Galway and the bridge at Waterside was positioned at the location of Galway’s River Corrib Viaduct, once part of the famous Galway to Clifden Railway.<br />
<br />
It is estimated that almost 4 tonnes of cardboard were used across the two builds. Following the constructions, children and grown-ups alike joined forces in a massive celebratory demolition, which saw the cardboard structures come tumbling down amidst shrieks of joy and delight.<br />
