Welcome to the THEO!

Welcome to the Theo! Come to our events to hear famous and not so famous people wrestle with big issues including Human Rights, Politics, the Environment, Theology and Feminism. Chill out in the Bram Stoker room, right up the top of the GMB where we have a great library to while away the hours.

Our Aims

The THEO wants to challenge your brain! Well, only partially. We want to show that thinking about the world and why we are here can be a healthy and fun part of your day. And when that gets a bit boring, we want you to relax in a soothing environment far away from the clamour of lectures, exams and essays. Come to our events to find out!

Our Events

We have lots in store for you this year! Our Monday night guest speaker (followed by a reception) is the staple of our events diet, with extra stuff like film screenings and more receptions throughout the year.
Take a look at last year's events.

Our Guests

Our guests come from all walks of life, both religious and non-religious, academic and non- academic, local and from all over Ireland and the UK. They represent  a diverse range of professions and worldviews, and have been invited based on their speaking style as well as their subject. The wide variety of our guests and topics means there is something for everyone.

Need to Study?

Our library contains books dating from 1876 right up to brand new releases. Come and browse with a cup of tea, or seach our database online.
