We have announced a new multi-annual visual arts residential studio bursary in partnership with Fire Station Artists' Studios in Dublin 1.

Facilitated by Business to Arts, the new annual Mason Hayes & Curran Bursary at Fire Station Artists' Studios recognises the challenges facing emerging artists in the current housing and economic context.

The bursary will support one visual artist per year for the next three years with a secure, subsidised, self-contained living and working space in Dublin city, alongside access to studio facilities, production resources, technical support and mentorship.

The first bursary term will commence in September 2026 and run for 12 months. Visit the Fire Station Artists' Studios website for more information and to apply.

This initiative builds on our long-time support of the visual arts in Ireland, which is a core part of the firm’s CSR activity. Our art programme ranges from commissions and acquisitions to events and sponsorships, including our partnership with the RDS Visual Art Awards, now in its 10th year.
