Case Study: Irish Arts Center streamlines fundraising events and guest check-in with zkipster

How zkipster helps Irish Arts Center create an atmosphere of Irish hospitality at its events

Irish Arts Center, a New York City arts organization, wanted to create an atmosphere of Irish hospitality at its events while also maintaining detailed guest data for prospecting, research, cultivation and moves management. It first learned about Zkipster through an agency partner and brought the platform into its tech stack in 2022, starting with event check-in and then expanding its use.

Zkipster now powers the Center’s fundraising events, including its annual Fall Gala, Women in Irish Arts luncheon, golf fundraiser and donor events. The team uses guest lists, seating charts, custom fields, guest relationships and the Zkipster app to personalize arrivals and speed up check-in; at the gala, 650 guests are checked in with minimal delay, and the 2022 Fall Gala raised $2.5m.
