Fighting Words, Brown Bag Films and The Irish Times win Business to Arts award

Fighting Words, Brown Bag Films and The Irish Times last night won the 2013 Business to Arts award for the Best Use of Creativity in the Community. The Irish Times and Brown Bag have been brilliant partners with Fighting Words for several years now.

As we seek to find more ways to have the creative writing of as many children as possible published, circulated, read and taken to new levels through involvement with film and film animation,  these organisations have been committing their resources and reputations to the ongoing work of Fighting Words, on a pro bono basis – helping to realise the creative talents of children and young adults.
