£200K Funding Pot To Support The Arts Across Harborough

Businesses and organisations across Harborough in the arts, cultural, heritage and creative sectors are being invited to apply for a share of over £200,000.

Grants of between £5,000 and £20,000 are available to help support their growth and development.

Examples could include alterations to buildings such as museums and theatres, improving visitor experiences at venues open to the public, creating exhibition spaces with new display equipment or investment in heritage trails to encourage increased participation in local history.

The funding scheme is being run by Harborough District Council using money from the government’s Rural England Prosperity Fund.

Rebecca Tomlin, Economic Development Manager at Harborough District Council, said: “The Rural England Prosperity Fund offers a great opportunity for the council to support rural businesses and organisations in the Harborough district with their growth and development plans.

“Their work supports our well-being and strengthens our rural communities. I encourage rural organisations to have a look online and apply.”

Applications close on 26 July 2024.
