    The Irish Traditional Music Archive (ITMA) is committed to providing free, universal access to the rich cultural tradition of Irish music, song and dance. If you’re able, we’d love for you to consider a donation. Any level of support will help us preserve and grow this tradition for future generations.

    €10

    Help ensure that the well of Irish music, song and dance is preserved for present and future generations.

    €20

    Donations of any level help ITMA digitise, preserve and offer free universal access to valuable materials that would otherwise be lost.

    €100

    The support of donors ensures ITMA can deliver an increasingly better service. Without private support, the transformative year we experienced in 2023 would not have been possible.

    €200

    Make your donation go further: a donation of €250 or more in any tax year is worth an additional 44.93% to ITMA. So for €50 more, ITMA can claim an additional €112.33 tax back from revenue.

    €250

    Irish-based donors can see their donations augmented by the State through the CHY3 form, which makes any donation above €250 worth €362.33 towards ITMA’s archival work, at no additional cost to you.

    €500

    ITMA is eligible for 501(c)3 donations, so for potential donors based in the USA, donating to ITMA can be a tax efficient way of making more and more archival material accessible to remote users.

    Ellen King hired as Project Officer for the Christy Moore Collection at ITMA

    Thursday 31 July 2025

    ITMA is delighted to announce the appointment Ellen King to the position of Project Officer for the Christy Moore Collection.

    Ellen acquired an MPhil in Public History and Cultural Heritage from Trinity College Dublin in 2021. Ellen has a background in research, cultural heritage, public history, the arts and PR. Since graduating she has worked as a researcher on various projects including Centry Ireland — an online newspaper archive project — and the documentary film In Time- Donal Lunny about the life and career of esteemed musician and producer Donal Lunny.

    In her role as Project Officer, Ellen will help develop an exhibition space for the Christy Moore Collection in 73 Merrion Square. Christy Moore donated his personal archive to ITMA in recent years with the aim of making it accessible to the public.

    Said Ellen: “Christy Moore is one of Irelands most lauded, notable and beloved folk musicians and I’m honoured to be part of the team at ITMA who, through the medium of exhibition will give the public access to his rich and varied personal archive.”
