Sponsors and Friends in 2026
Kinvara Plein Air is a not-for-profit art festival organised by a team of volunteers who are all members of Kinvara Area Visual Arts (KAVA).
We are most grateful for the support, funding and sponsorship that we received in 2026 from the Galway County Council Community Support Schemes and from a wide range of organisations, businesses and individuals – in our local community and further afield.
We look forward to continued support from our generous sponsors and we invite others to support us in maintaining and growing a vibrant, sustainable festival.
Supported with funding from Fáilte Ireland &
Galway Co.Council.
