View answerCulture Ireland, a division of my Department, was established in 2005 with a focussed remit to promote Irish arts worldwide. Culture Ireland operates a grant funding scheme designed to support the presentation and promotion of Irish arts internationally and raise the global awareness and appreciation of Irish arts, develop new audiences and generate career opportunities for Irish artists.
Details of the artists funded by Culture Ireland from 2014 to 2016 and the amount they were awarded can be found on the Culture Ireland website using the following link: http://applications.cultureireland.ie/index.php?r=reports/outcomeGrant&year=2016&program_id=1.
