Show how many people work in the arts in Ireland!

As an initiative of the National Campaign for the Arts, an effort is underway to demonstrate how many people work in the arts—either as a creative artist or in administration and support—in each electoral constituency throughout the country.

Anyone who earns any part of their living through the arts should sign up to the Facebook page for their constituency (ie where they are registered to vote). This will demonstrate to politicians in a very clear way just how many votes there are in the arts!

If you have a Facebook account, just enter ‘arts workers’ in the search box and it will bring up the list of constituency groups.
