You deserve a team that understands your mission

We’ve worked with many arts organisations, schools and education providers over the years. We know how to present events, display teachers and classes and organise complex programmes and information.

How do we know so much about your mahi? Brendyn’s highest qualification is a Masters in Traditional Irish Music Performance (University of Limerick, IRE). He has toured internationally, won a New Zealand music award and worked in live sound and stage management for festivals over many years. Brendyn and Jan also both worked in an adult education non-profit.

Really positive experience! We felt like you really heard our needs & vision for the site and didn’t make any assumptions about our users. Great communication throughout.

Avoca have just rebuilt our website. We couldn’t be happier. The colours and layout captured me instantly. It’s easy for visitors to navigate, to get the information they need, then register and pay. Due to the understanding Avoca has of our needs and processes, the back end, where I spent a fair bit of time updating the variables for our events, is easy to work through.

It is always a pleasure working with you both, and it feels as though you’re part of the NCMA family, and not just another external business that we deal with. The whole process was surprisingly smooth from our end, and your advice and guidance throughout made it all that much doable as we climbed the mountain.
