Dublin Street Lane Challenge Grant Announced
DDF is thrilled to announce that it has received a Challenge Grant from a member of its Board of Directors. Called the Dublin Street Lane Challenge Grant, the funding of up to €15,000 over three years will match euro for euro new, individual support. Hence, for every euro contributed by an individual to the Festival, the match will provide another euro, up to €5,000 per year for three years.
This means that if you become our Friend or contribute to the festival, you help bring us closer to reaching our goal, and effectively double the value of your contribution. Laurie Uprichard, the Festival Director, says “We’re delighted by this generous donation…. Our event is unique in the breadth and number of dance artists it brings to Ireland, and we’re thrilled to have new financial support for our endeavour.”
As our Friend, you are entitled to some great benefits including complimentary tickets and membership in the Festival Club at The Octagon Bar. Friends receive 15% off bar food and beverages until the end of May. What a great way to support DDF and place yourself at the heart of the festival action!
