I chair @GrimmAndCo, one of the Arts Council’s NPOs. This thread is a brilliant explanation of why today is so very important for all AC funded organisations. Good luck to everyone waiting anxiously for news.
What’s happening today in the arts.🧵
Arts organisations across England will find out if they have been awarded National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) status from Arts Council England (ACE). Those awarded will receive funding from Apr 2023 to Mar 2026.
