Support Boho Arts
Boho Arts is a registered charity in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK.
Our charitable purpose: “To advance the arts for the public benefit in particular but not exclusively through opportunities to partake in performing arts and attend theatrical performances, the provision of drama, improvisation, film making, music, literature, visual art and other arts workshops.”
Our Vision: A world of creative opportunities where everyone has access to the arts in a more integrated society where they are seen, valued and heard.
Our Mission: To create accessible spaces and activities where communities, artists, and audiences can come together to connect, collaborate, and be creative. See our full mission statement.
HOW WE RUN OUR CHARITY
At the moment, any grants we receive are restricted to particular projects. This means they cover direct project costs with specific outcomes and over a specified time. Often, we need to provide ‘match-funding’. This means a proportion of the costs must be paid by us. This could be anywhere from 20% to 50% of the project. While the money we earn independently from classes, projects and events goes some of the way to paying the bills, they by no means cover them all.
We have no core funding (this means to cover ongoing salaries or overheads) and we rely on donations to help provide any match funding, and to sustain and grow our organisation. This takes enormous commitment, energy and resources of our small management team, who also willing volunteer most of their free time towards our mission and purpose. Hence our achievements in developing our capital project over the past 2 ½ years, with the aim of refurbishing a vacant building into an Inclusive Creative Arts Hub in central Newcastle.
GENERAL UNRESERVED FUND
We humbly accept one off or regular donations to our general unreserved fund.
Donations to this unrestricted fund are hugely beneficial to Boho Arts as they support our charitable purpose and mission. They enable us to be dynamic, more flexible and sustainable by putting resources towards the significant costs of running and developing our charity, and the freedom for the Trustees to designate funds to the campaigns, services, and projects that are in the greatest need of support at the time.
Thank you for considering donating to Boho Arts. We are extremely grateful for your support.
