Scholarship Programme

The Irish Georgian Society supports and promotes scholarly research through its journal, 'Irish Architectural & Decorative Studies', and with bursaries awarded through the Desmond Guinness Scholarship and the John Maiben Gilmartin Prize. The IGS journal has been published since 1998 and embraces the entire spectrum of Ireland's post-medieval architecture. In 2023, as part of a two-part process it is planned to make these publications available free of charge through a new website – www.igsjournal.ie. The Desmond Guinness Scholarship is awarded annually primarily to those who are not yet established at an advanced professional level while the John Maiben Gilmartin Prize assists the work of early career scholars.
