the financial 5taternents of the charitable company for the year ended ) l March 2024.
Legal and administrative information is contained on the company inforn￿tIon page preceeding this report.
Objective5 and activities
Objects and aim5
Belfast Platform for the Arts ( known as Platfomi ) is a voluntary organisation established as a registered charity
in imay 2009 by a group of concerned individuals who desired to advance the education of the public in the
promotion and appreciation of the Art5 in Belfast.
We seek to acheive this by holding regular exhibitions and run a programme of events designed to meet ihese
objective5. We intend to create a safe space frir the local community.
We are an artist led studio group and comtempordry art gallery currently based in East Belfast. Our role is to
aclively promote creative expression, presenlation and acce55 to contemporary art practice through our
Exhibition, Outreach and Studio Progrdmmes. We are managed by a Board of Dire¢tor5 drawn from a wide
range of organisations connected with the Arts, all of whom have practical working knowledge of the Arts, and
who are well quailfied and experien¢ed in their fields of expertise. The majority are practicing artists with a
commitment lo develop their skills within a variety of fields. We intend to work more closely with our fellow
organisations and the community within East Belfast.
Public benefit
We a5SiSt emerging artists in necessitous circum5tance5 to become self-SUPPOrting by the provision of studio
space and facilities, advice and trdining, allom'ing them lo develop their talents. We also manage an arena for
public art exhibitions, demonstrations and lectures and a5 a centre for other art related aclivities which
encourages appreciation fr>r and participalion in community based art5 activities designed to enable members of
the general public to explore their creativity. These activities serve to educate and inform the general public in
the appreciation of the arts.
The trustees confirni that they have complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2008 to
have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by The Charity Commission for N.orthern Ireland.
Achievements and performance
Platforni Arts has continued to participate in and manage a multitude of exhibitions, workshops and events. Last
year we were able to showcase over l O exhibition5 and supported over 40 artists. We hosted many workshops
and launched a monthly event called Late Night Art East in September. This event had 7 different organisations
showcase a new exhibition or workshop and Saw an estimated 1501200 people attend. There was free food and
beverages, a DJ, and an optional guided tour hosted by Platforni Arts which brought around 50 people alone.
We now have the majority of the organisalions in East Belfast involved in an event which takes place on the
second Thursday of the month. We hosted an open call for illustrators to produce a brochure and create the
overall look of the event. The chosen illustrator was awarded a fee. Thls then led to a group show exhibiting all
the illustrators who applied. The event was sponsored by Belfast 2024.
Platforni had some renovations which included our walls being newly pl&stered and painted. This allowed the
space lo have a more professional and neutral aesthetic for exhibiting artists. The team of director5 took time to
paint, clean and tidy the gallery which has benefiled everyone from studio holders to the public.
We had the pleasure to launch a new website with an updated and more maneuverable archive, which includes
the 15 year history of Platfomi. OUT websjte is now updated with our upcoming exhibitions. workshops, events.
open calls, newsletter and more.
