Full details and application forms are available from artsoffice@meathcoco.ie or https://www.meath.ie/council/council-services/arts/meath-county-council-arts-funding

As many circumstances have changed, individuals or organisations who have already submitted an application are now required to email the Arts Office confirming the event, festival or project for which funding was sought is still going ahead in 2020. If we do not hear from you we will assume you no longer wish to pursue your application.

If however you have had to postpone your project or event in 2020 and now wish to apply for a revised project taking place in 2020 you should email the Arts Office at artsoffice@meathcoco.ie to advise us of same.

Please note you must make a new application for any revised project.
