SUPPORT
THE
ARTS
Most arts venues have only just started reopening since closing at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak in March 2020.
​
Please consider supporting your local arts venues in any way you can, and help to spread awareness of the minimal support much of this sector has received as well as the large number of freelancers who have fallen through the gaps and have had no support due to limitations in government support packages.
