What your organisation does
Although not currently able to afford the costs of printing a magazine, due to funding cuts during the Recession, Circa continues its remit in education and the visual arts by: • Commissioning texts and projects for its website, circaartmagazine.net. • Promoting on an almost-daily basis at least one text from Circa's huge catalogue of original
texts and and art pieces. They date from 1981 through to 2022. Most deal with the visual arts in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. This promotion is done simultaneously through the social-media platforms of Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
