A New Basic Income for the Arts is approved!

Minister Patrick O'Donovan made the announcement today. Government have approved paramaters.

2,000 artists will be selected before year end and guidelines will be published in April before launch for applications in May.

This is a welcome and significant seal of support for the artist community in Ireland from Minister Patrick O’Donovan and his team at the Department of Culture, Communications and Sport.

In making the announcement the minister referred to supporting, protecting and strengthening the artist community.

The research from the previous pilot shows a basic income for the arts enables artists to both devote more time to their art, and experience greater life satisfaction.

Today is a good day for the arts in Ireland.
