About Young at Art
The Belfast Children’s Festival is run by Young at Art, a children's arts charity set up in 1998 with a mission to make life from birth to eighteen as creative as possible through the arts. A year-round programme of outreach and events across Northern Ireland accompanies the festival. Click here for more information.
Supporting the festival
Young at Art is a charity and fundraises 85% of its costs, passing on only 15% to those buying tickets. Meeting this big challenge happens in part with key supporters like the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Belfast City Council through its Culture and Arts Unit.
