Description

‘Arts Fundraising for Busy People’ is a fully booked networking event for leaders and fundraisers in in the creative sector being held in the Charles Street Building, Sheffield Hallam University, Charles Street, on Wednesday 25thMay, 10am-1.30pm, ending with a networking lunch.

“It’s a challenging fundraising climate for arts and creative organisations at the moment, and so it’s increasingly important to use all the tools at our disposal to make the best case for our work”, said Luisa Golob, co founder of Culture Everywhere and CEO at Ignite Imaginations.

She continued, “This event will feature talks from fundraisers and leaders in the sector, offering the opportunity for small arts organisations to connect with other creative organisations working in the region, and share ideas and inspiration.”

The focus of the morning will be on the use of data and evidence in arts fundraising, particularly how smaller organisations can maximise their fundraising capacity, and raise money to deliver artistic and social goals.

Speakers at the event will include Melanie Iredale, the Deputy Director of Sheffield Doc/Fest, Bill Vince, Senior Relationship Manager for the Arts Council England and Danny Antrobus, also a founder and director Culture Everywhere.

Melanie will speak from her experience as a fundraiser, looking at how Doc/Fest uses a variety of income sources and collects data to support its fundraising. Meanwhile Bill will present from a funders point of view, sharing what the Arts Council England has done and is doing to help the arts and culture sector.

Danny Antrobus will introduce Culture Everywhere, a web platform for fundraisers in the arts and cultural sector.  He says, “As fundraisers, we rely on hard and soft evidence to help us develop projects, produce funding bids, and understand our impact. I will be speaking about the growing role of data in our sector, and the continued value of story-telling for fundraising.”
