Donations
In normal circumstances ticket sales provide 50% of our overall income; the remainder comes from public grants and our Friends / Benefactors’ Scheme. Restricted and in some cases, no audience, due to the COVID-19 crisis has created a significant financial challenge for us. Your help would be appreciated, if you’re in a position to do so. Anything you can donate will help us secure our future and ensure we can welcome audiences back as soon as it is safe to do so.
A big thank you for your support
We’re extremely grateful to our core funders, the Arts Council and Louth County Council for their continued support.
Thanks to Droichead Arts Centre for its support as partner to the Series.
We thank RTÉ Supporting The Arts for their promotional help and media partnership.
Our individuals
