ISACS/Spraoi Partnership 2019
The Irish Street Arts, Circus
& Spectacle Network is a
membership & resource organisation for the development of street and circus arts across Ireland. ISACS and Spraoi have worked in close partnership since 2014, each year collaborating on new ways to encourage the growth of these art forms. DELVE is a programme that enables young artists to visit festivals,
meet with festival directors, fellow artists and other professionals. NEST, the New Emerging Street Talent programme, is a joint initiative between Spraoi and ISACS.
It offers emerging street artists residential mentoring by established street practitioners before showcasing new work to audiences and international festival directors.
