The Butler Gallery in collaboration with Kids’ Own Publishing Partnership has been developing a book written by children for those of all ages interested in learning more about art entitled ‘What is Art’ throughout 2010 and 2011. We are using the Fund it website to fundraise for the remaining amount we need to bring this project to completion.

Fund it is a website that allows artists and arts organisations, like us, raise funding for new projects and enables individuals to get behind projects you believe in. We need to raise €4,500 to cover the costs of the printing of the final hardback copies of ‘What is Art’.

Every pledge, no matter how big or small, will help us to reach our target and to get this new work to completion. Click here to watch an inspiring and entertaining film about the process of making ‘What is Art’, and to find out more about the project. Then simply click on the ‘fund:it’ sign to pledge your support. Note, you’ll need to create an account with Fund it to fund the project – a quick process which is outlined below.

Please also send this on via email, Facebook or Twitter to networks that you know of who might be interested in supporting us.

Help us achieve our target by Friday 17 June 2011. Thank you for your support – we greatly appreciate it!
