Posted on 20 March 2023

We are delighted to share that we have been awarded a Cultural Partnership Grant for 2023-2026!

Thank you to Manchester City Council for continuing to believe in all that we do and for helping us make new art happen.

The Cultural Partnership Grants are designed to help with organisations’ core running costs to enable them to continue and extend their work with different communities in the city.

Funding was awarded to organisations based in the city or otherwise able to demonstrate that they have a strong offer and a track record of delivering cultural opportunities for Manchester residents.

Awards have been made across a wide range of art forms to reflect the broadest possible range of cultural opportunities. Visual arts, music, theatre, museums, and heritage organisations are all represented amongst the organisations that have received grant funding.

Councillor Luthfur Rahman OBE, Deputy Leader, Manchester City Council, said: “Manchester has a long history of supporting culture and the arts and for good reason. The arts enrich all our lives and help make Manchester a better place to live, work, and invest in. The city is home to some amazing arts organisations, and we want everyone to benefit from the fantastic cultural opportunities on our doorstep, of which there are many – whether that’s as an artist, or working for one of them, or as an audience member.”
