Welcome to our September e-newsletter. Over the summer we published our Events & Activities brochure, packed with opportunities for arts fundraisers.A digital versionof the brochure is also available on our website.
Today I am delighted to announce our 15 Arts Fundraising Fellows for 2014/15 who will join arts organisations in the North, the South West and London for year-long traineeships. I’m also thrilled to let you know that Arts Council England has confirmed additional funding to support the programme’s expansion into the Midlands and East/South East in 2015. You can find all the details on our website.
