The Arts Council England have donated an incredible £49,500 to organisations or creative practitioners in the constituency as part of their Covid-19 Emergency Response Fund.
In the area, I'm happy to say that The Mono Box in Droitwich and the Garage Art Group in Evesham recently received grants from this fund.
As we're all aware, it's been an exceptionally hard time for the Arts industry and I know the Arts Council, together with the government and The National Lottery, have been an amazing help in alleviating the pressures faced by artists, actors, museums and libraries, and supporting them throughout the crisis.
For more information on what else they're doing to help the Arts industry, do have a look at the Arts Council website here.
