Our Mission
...to raise the profile of  the music and arts of Ireland in Britain and to celebrate the many contributions that Irish people have made to life in this country.

The Leeds based Irish Arts Foundation (IAF) was established in Leeds, England in June 1998 formerly as the Irish Music Project, Leeds as a Company Ltd by Guarantee (No. 4927919) and a Registered Charity (No. 1101657).

The IAF is core funded by the Irish Government and Leeds City Council and is project funded by a number of public and private partners. We work extensively with a number of partners both locally and nationally and pride ourselves in the delivery of high quality professional arts and educational programmes.
