Business to Arts have completed an evaluation report of our AR Programmes. The report was undertaken by Business to Arts, with support from Pat Kitterick (past Assistant Chief Inspector with Department of Education). It presents an overview of two Dublin Docklands based programmes, and the benefits of participating in an AR Programme for artists, companies, and community organisations.
Recommendations for future AR Programmes are suggested, based on collective experience, and independent evaluation of the residencies. The publication is provided to inform future AR Programmes, artists, community organisations, and businesses who are interested in developing an AR Programme. They provide:
- A new revenue stream / enhanced revenue for an artist
- A programme / curriculum content for community partners
- A structure to create or enhance a CSR programme for a company
