An Arts Grant from Dublin City Council can have a significant impact on a project or a career often helping to leverage other funding and resources. Dublin City Council has agreed to continue to sustain and increase Arts Grants in the coming years.”

Among the diverse grant recipients this year are Community Arts festivals ‘Phizzfest’ and the Five Lamps Arts Festival, a Gothic Arts Festival ‘Soul Noir’, a dance hip hop festival ‘Break the War’ and the Irish Baroque Orchestra for ‘Dublin Handelfest’.

The €550,000 award fund has been divided amongst Artists and Arts organisations whose applications were complementary to the following objectives:

  • Stimulating public interest in the Arts.
