The St Patrick’s Festival and TikTok were among the award winners at the 30th Business to Arts Awards in Dublin on Tuesday.
Others to secure awards included Sample-Studios & Gurranabraher Credit Union, Zurich and National Gallery of Ireland with Crawford Art Gallery, Poetry Ireland and The Adrian Brinkerhoff Foundation, and Emmet Kane and John Sisk & Son.
The judges said this year’s shortlisted groups and winners featured commissioners and creatives “who are pushing the boundaries of what a creative partnership can look like”.
The Best Large Sponsorship Award, supported by law firm Arthur Cox, went to the St Patrick’s Festival for its partnership with TikTok. Digital artist Nadia J Armstrong won the inaugural Accenture €10,000 Digital Innovation in Art Bursary for her work exploring the interplay between human and machine.
