Projects
Eventus uses the arts and creative approaches to help bring about change.
We specialise in working with non- arts organisations.
We’re good at partnership working because we understand that it has to be a win-win situation for all partners.
We have a small amount of revenue funding from Arts Council England but all projects need financing. We are happy to work with partners on different ways of doing this.
We are always happy to talk through ideas or arrange an initial free meeting, so get in touch now so see what we can achieve together.
