Funding the future : a user's manual for fundraising in the arts / Andrew Mcllory
Series: MosaicPublication details: Strasbourg : Council of Europe, 2001Description: 81 pSummary: Our intention through these guides is not to promote one specific model of cultural policies or management, but rather to offer policy makers, administrators and managers a large sample of measures, incentives or practices that have been applied effectively somewhere in Europe, in order to help them to define by themselves which solutions might be the most appropriate to their own national context. The first publication in this new collection, "Funding the future": A user's manual for fundraising in the arts, is dedicated to what is most probably one of the major concerns of cultural managers all over Europe. This issue is even more crucial in South-East Europe, where the States which were once the so le contributors to the arts have been bound to reduce considerably their cultural expenses due to the economic situation, and where this same economic situation makes it difficult to attract money from businesses. Fundraising in the arts has become an art in itself. In order to help cultural managers to develop their skills in this aspect, Andrew McIlroy proposes a number of practical suggestions in his guide: he goes back over a number of fundamental concepts and definitions in order to develop a clear understanding of the different kinds of possible funding, he illustrates several effective techniques which may help when applying for these funds, and, last but not least, he provides a detailed list of sources of information and of potential funders.
