You could make imaginations fly

Over 50% of attendances at Salisbury Arts Centre’s participatory activities are free for those taking part, giving young people in Wiltshire’s most deprived communities access to the arts.

Participants have discovered new talents, grown in confidence and sparked pride and admiration in their communities.

We’re determined for those projects to continue but with the recent loss of £89,500 of Wiltshire Council funding we’re facing a real challenge.

Your response has been overwhelmingly supportive. We can see and hear how passionately you share our belief that communities thrive when imaginations fly.If you are able to give a donation to help us keep the arts accessible and affordable to all we will be hugely grateful.

£3 could subsidise a performance ticket and help us sustain school discounts£26 could pay for an artist to deliver a free 1 hour workshop

£63 could provide a free bursary place for 1 Young Filmmaker

£110 could subsidise the hiring of our space for a charity or community group£200 could pay for a day of filming with young people on Bemerton Heath
