IRISH ARTS REVIEW

30^th Anniversary Autumn issue

On sale 29 August until 21 November 2014 

Dear Watercolour Society of Ireland Members,

The Irish Arts Review is read by 40,000 people and recognised internationally as the most important showcase for Irish art on the world stage attracting an audience of serious art buyers and influential individuals in the arts in Ireland and around the world. The 30^th anniversary Summer issue was launched by the Irish Ambassador at the Embassy of Ireland in London on 11^th June, with a great turn out by the Irish corporate and arts community in London and much interest in the magazine.

For the upcoming 160^th Exhibition I would like to offer you a special rate to promote your own work to a very well- targeted readership of buyers.

1/4p at e500 plus vat (reduced from e1000) to run from 29 Aug to 21^st Nov.  Ad design e20 plus vat if required. Deadline 4^th August.

I look forward to talking to about this and other options.

The Autumn issue will feature sculptor Bob Sloan as the main interview, artists Duncan Campbell, Cian McLoughlin, Graham Gingles, Elizabeth Cope, Tom Fitzgerald, the highlights from the Irish Graduate Shows and more. 

Your advertising will be seen for 3 months by:

6,000 loyal postal subscribers receive the magazine immediately it is published and 5,000 retail copies are sold in 600 outlets in Ireland and Northern Ireland.

<    Exposure to up to 40,000 readers over 3 months: industry standards suggest that a quarterly magazine that is around for 3 months reaches an average of 4 readers per copy. It is of course impossible to give you specific figures of readers per copy, but because the Irish Art Review is such a high quality magazine which is kept as a collector’s item and for reference in galleries, museums, libraries, universities and other institutions, our readers per copy may be higher than the industry standard.

Best wishes,

Yvonne Smalley,
