We are asking for your urgent support in regard of the survival of Camden Palace Hotel Community Arts Centre on Camden Quay, Cork.  Due to the recent economic recession, NAMA have become, by default, the new beneficiary and new landlord of our building.  Camden Palace Hotel Community Arts Centre is now for sale.  Our organization has delivered continuous support for the artistic community in Cork for the last five years and is now at risk of being shut down.

Camden Palace Hotel has built a dance studio, theatre/cinema, fully equipped workshops, a traditional dark room, a recording studio and rehearsal room. In addition there are several artist studios, a naturally lit exhibition space, a radio station and printmaking facilities.  Camden Palace Hotel is an independent and not-for-profit arts organisation. We do not receive any funding and work mainly in collaboration with our local community.  Moving premises is not an option.  The scope for artistic work, collaboration and realisation has been massive for us and hopefully, with your support, will continue to be.  If you think Camden Palace Hotel Community Arts Centre is an important part of Cork’s Culture and something that you are willing to support, please add your name in asking the National Assets Management Agency to help us remain open to the community by extending our lease, giving us the opportunity to fundraise for the purchase of the building.  We hope you agree that Camden Palace Hotel has a colourful and creative impact on Cork City.  We would appreciate whatever you could do to help us survive.  If you want to see more of what we do, please visit: www.camdenpalacehotel.org 

Thank you for your time & support
