Ideas from our Arts Funding Meet-up in London

Yesterday in the centre of London we gathered a group of people from very different parts of the cultural sector in an informal gathering to talk all things arts and culture funding related. We had people working in museums, in dance, in commercial theatre, in festivals, fringe theatre, participatory arts and digital media for cultural organisations.

First, there is a lot of conversation about ‘making the argument’ and ‘putting the case for’ yet I’m not…

The cuts in Wales

The Welsh Assembly Government has been given the option to implement cuts this year, or to defer them to 2011/12.


No decision has been made and this leaves ACW and its clients in a state of continued flux.


If Wales needs to make cuts on a similar level to England and WAG implements cuts this year this translates as a cut in this financial year of £1.25m. Not an easy amount to find.


ACW have this morning warned its…
