Join us for Solidarity Space: London, where small to midscale London organisations can come together to support, vent, and organise.
About this Event

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

Across the arts sector, there are plummeting success rates within Trust & Foundation funding. Unlike large-scale organisations with resourced development teams and prestige venues, at the small-scale, it can be more challenging to develop other income streams. There is a lack of structured support for organisations in this area and a growing need for solidarity and knowledge sharing.

WHAT IS IT?

This is a quarterly online space in which organisations working in a specific area can come together to support each other, vent, and organise effective arguments to change the system. Organisational leaders often lack the capacity for this organising, so BAP! has started creating spaces.

Presentation: Analysis of some data from this quarter, so you don’t have to wade through a lot of information. This time it will be the newly announced Arts Council England NPO 2027 round.

Look ahead: A snapshot of upcoming deadlines or opportunities that might be of interest.

Vent space: Time to talk about what is difficult right now and connect informally, this is facilitated with prompts.

Action Space: Time to discuss and take part in activities based on the outcomes of the previous meeting's vent space.
