With arts organisations, particularly artist-led ones, facing a tricky financial future we are delighted to be given a £5,000 Awards for All Lottery funding to help raise cultural awareness and promote the arts in central Scotland.
This afternoon sees the inaugural meeting of Creative Industries Stirling, getting together of art, design and craft organisations in the area in order to work together for the future benefit of us all.
I will be there representing Forth Valley Open Studios.
