Creative Ireland 2020 Projects
Only two out of fourteen Creative Ireland projects will need to be deferred to 2021. Other projects are being adapted for delivery on schedule or simply postponed until later in the year. The deferrals have resulted in surplus funds (€ 9500). The following has been proposed to utilise the funding to the best advantage of Cork City’s Cultural life: • €1500 has been allocated towards the production of an episode of ‘My Creative Life’ for the RTÉ podcast series. A young person engaging in an arts programme by Cork Printmakers for youth living in Direct Provision was nominated to feature in the production as well as the trailer. It has been supported by Cork Migrant Centre. The podcast is due to be aired in early July 2020. • €6000 has been allo cated to the production and documentary of ‘contact’ by Corcadorca. This is a theatre piece in response to the experience of COVID that is taking place on greens in the centre of residential settings around the city as part of the Midsummer Festival. It aims to bring cultural experience to people that cannot access our creative institutions currently, particularly those more vulnerable to the virus such as older people and those with health conditions. There has been national and local press coverage of this very special production. • Proposals by the Culture Team will be presented at the July meeting to aid in the decision to allocate the remaining €2000 in funding.
