Arts & Business is inviting nominations from UK arts bodies for the 6th annual Prince of Wales Medal for Arts Philanthropy. These are designed to "recognise and celebrate the support of those individuals who are making a significant difference through their philanthropy" to the arts.
Arts & Business hopes that, by highlighting their stories, they will enocurage others to develop a passion for giving to arts and cultural organisations.
Nominations of well established philanthropists are welcomed, but in particular Arts & Business hope to see nominations of lesser known or hitherto unknown arts philanthropists.
