As part of Sky's commitment to investing in Ireland, applications are now open to Irish arts organisations to be selected as the 3rd Sky Arts Ignition project. Sky Arts will invest £200,000 (approximately €230,000) in the creation of a new innovative work of art in Ireland, which we will them amplify through our programming and communications outlets. Sky Arts will invest up to £1.2m in six new works of art under the Sky Arts Ignition initiative.

Last week we held briefing sessions in Dublin for 100 people from Irish cultural organisations on how to best prepare their applications for the current funding round. For further more information, read the coverage in The Irish Times.
