As a committee, we’re delighted to have reached
the milestone of delivering 10 years of successful festivals in Kells, and we look forward
to the coming decade.
Without the backing of our Friends, Patrons and Benefactors, it would not have been
possible to stage Hinterland.
This support enables us to realise our Vision for the festival: that Hinterland will be a
festival that brings the people of Kells together with the finest writers in the world to
inspire a marketplace of ideas and imagination, to build community involvement and well-being,
and to shape a new and confident identity for Kells as the international centre of creativity,
and allows us continue with our Mission: to produce a programme of events of international
quality, that will support and develop local artists, develop the town through a creative use
of space and programming, and support the local economy by encouraging local spending and
attracting international visitors.
As well as the warm good feelings that come from the knowledge that your support ensures
the continuance of the Festival, membership comes with benefits. Here are the details on what
you can expect as a Hinterland Friend, Patron or Benefactor.
