South Warwickshire organisations to benefit from millions in Arts Council England funding
Organisations across south Warwickshire are set to receive a share of £446 million a year from Arts Council England.
The national body has revealed the 990 organisations nationwide that will receive a slice of the annual investment.
Among them are a host of local organisations including not-for-profit arts group Live + Local which will receive £451,775 per year from 2023 to 2026.
Leamington-based dance-circus production company Motionhouse will benefit from £477,432 each year also.
And the University of Warwick will be given £501,168 annually.
Arts Council England said the funding comes from both taxes and the National Lottery, with the latest announcement including 276 organisations that have not received pay-outs before.
Chair, Sir Nicholas Serota, said: "As well as continuing our commitment to our many established and renowned cultural organisations, I am deeply proud of the support we will be giving to those new organisations which will help ignite creativity across the country.
"We are facing economic pressures at present, but this funding is about an investment in our future.
"This portfolio will support the next generation of visionary inventors, makers, performers and artists.
"In particular, the growth of our funding for organisations that support and develop work for children represents a profoundly important long-term investment in our country's talent."
Other local beneficiaries include the British Motor Museum (£224,000 pa), Compton Verney House (153,000 pa) and the Royal Shakespeare Company (£15,260,000 pa).
