The key objective of this Bursary is to offer community groups, organisations, venues, artists, performers and everyone involved in the culture and creative sectors an opportunity to develop high quality projects/programmes that enable groups and individuals to realise their full creative potential and encourage greater access, knowledge and appreciation of the arts, creative industries, heritage and the Irish language.
