Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Arts Sector Funding: Discussion

1:30 pm

Ms Orlaith McBride:

Yes, Creative Children is strand 2 of Creative Ireland. As part of that we have developed Creative Schools. Creative Ireland has provided separate funding to roll out the Creative Schools programme. We have also received quite significant funding from the Department of Education and Skills, which for us is an extraordinary achievement. The Arts Council is also investing some of its own resources in it as well. That is starting this year.
