Organised by
Art Fund Devon Fundraising Committee is a team of volunteers who historically organised a six monthly programme of events to raise money for Art Fund, the national fundraising charity for art. Following a decision by the trustees of Art Fund all Fundraising Committees will be disbanded 31st December 2019. However, as Devon Fundraising Committee had planned an event for March 2020 this event will continue but will be the final event for the Devon Fundraising Committee.
Art Fund helps museums and galleries acquire works of art for their collections. It also helps museums share their collections with wider audiences by supporting a range of tours and exhibitions, and makes additional grants to support the training and professional development of curators. Art Fund is independently funded, with the core of its income provided by 122,000 members who receive the National Art Pass and enjoy free entry to over 240 museums, galleries and historic places across the UK, as well as 50% off entry to major exhibitions. www.artfund.org
