- Description:
- This is a contract for the provision of digital arts assessor services to provide secondary assessment of applications for funding. In November 2023 the Arts Council released its first Digital Arts Policy, available online at https://www.artscouncil.ie/Arts-in-Ireland/Digital/. Our vision is for the Arts Council and the arts sector to have the knowledge, skills and funding to support and sustain evolving digital artistic activity in Ireland. We strive to make sure that artists, arts workers and arts organisations are supported to make excellent digital work. To support artists, arts workers and arts organisations working in digital arts, there is an urgent need to develop capacity both across the broader arts sector and within the Arts Council. Appointing a specialist digital arts assessor will ensure the Arts Council has the capacity and expertise to assess digital artwork. It is envisaged that this contract will commence in March 2026 for a period of 3 years, with the option to extend by 1 year.
