**[Arts Funding & Philanthropy](http://artsfundraising.org.uk/) has put out a call
for applications for funding to support fundraising training events, conferences,
seminars or introductory meetings.**

It is offering funding to pay some of the associated costs that arise from organising
events in order to encourage and support networks, collaboration and group learning
in fundraising across England in the arts and cultural sector.

These costs may include participants’ travel costs, venue hire, catering, fees for
speakers/guests, or any other relevant expenditure. The Arts Funding & Philanthropy
programme will pay costs up to a maximum of £1,500 net for any single event.
