Support Us

How you can help us…

Generous sponsorship and funding has yet again allowed us to schedule a wonderfully diverse month of cultural activities. We have been able to subsidise or waive ticket prices in many instances and, in so doing, can help open up the arts to an audience that may otherwise not experience it. For this we owe many individuals and organisations a great deal of thanks.

In 2017 we are proud to have been supported by Arts Council England, Award For All Big Lottery Fund, Rother District Council, Battle Town Council, Heringtons, Southern Energy Solutions, Littlewood, Pinot the Musical, blackShed Gallery

There are many ways that you can support the festival from volunteering time, to individual giving and sponsorship. To find out more please contact us via the webform on our contact page or download our Individual Giving form or 2017 Sponsorship Brochure by clicking on the links below.
