Open to all levels of experience, this two-hour session with Manda Graham (Creative Spark Projects and Equal Vision CIC) is a one-stop shop for securing funding.

The workshop is being organised by the Herefordshire Visual Arts Network - which is led by HCA Fine Art alumni Gemma Moore - and is part of a series of free upcoming sessions through September and October funded by Herefordshire Council via the UKSPF programme.

Herefordshire Visual Artist Network, or HVAN, is a new group for Herefordshire-based artists to network, develop and grow. The network provides a forum to celebrate the creativity in Herefordshire. The idea was launched in November 2023, and since then I have been contacting artists based all over the county to develop an exciting artist group. This was a great way of learning more about what the artists of Herefordshire think and feel about their practice within the context of Herefordshire.

About the session:

Fundraising can be a bit of a dull or daunting subject. Manda will lead a fun and insightful workshop, working with a live project that you would like to fund. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a toolkit that you can use to help you to build projects and write better funding applications that meet the needs of funders. You’ll have new skills and knowledge which will give you the best chance of getting a YES when you submit your next application.
 

About Manda: 

For 25 years, Manda has delivered 100s of arts, heritage and cultural projects across the West Midlands and the South of England. During this time, she’s raised over £2 million from Arts Council England and Wales, Heritage Lottery Fund, the Community Fund, sponsorship, donations and various Trusts and Foundations.
