Dunamaise Arts Centre

Dunamaise-Arts-CentreThe Dunamaise Arts Centre website (www.dunamaise.ie) needed a fundamental redesign and redevelopment. A fresh, contemporary design was required with a robust content management system (CMS) which could be managed easily in-house by Dunamaise Arts Centre staff. The home page now carries listings in A-Z and chronological orders. There is also a slideshow showcasing the main events that Arts Centre staff wish to promote.

The new site has a content management system allows Dunamaise staff to manage and update event listings, news and static information like venue history, technical specifications and facilities, location, etc. Events are entered into the CMS, then content is automatically pushed to Facebook and Twitter. All pages have social bookmarking which lets visitors to Like and Tweet about the pages.

Other advantages of changing to a new CMS are Search Engine Optimisation and Web Accessibility.

There are also HTML Newsletters / Mailing Lists:

These can be broken into three main areas:
1. Public Mailing List
2. Friends of the Dunamaise Arts Centre Mailing List
3. Press Mailing List

Ticketing:

Integrate events with a new online ticketing system which allowsis part of the Arts Centre’s box office software suite.

Search Engine Optimisation:
