This training event, brought to you by Arts & Business Scotland supporting Resourcing Scotland’s Heritage, will provide a ‘how-to’ guide to crowdfunding for cultural organisations.

There are 8 places for arts organisations and 8 places for heritage organisations to participate in the event which is being delivered by The creative crowdfunding agency (SoLoCo and Dig Ventures). The event will include:

The who, what and why of crowdfunding

Crowdfunding stories

Practical group exercises

Developing your network and target audience

The training will also incorporate a hands-on simulated crowdfund so that you can try out your new skills straight away.

A maximum of two tickets are available for each participating organisation and we are looking for organisations who are seriously considering undertaking a crowdfund and who have a project in mind.

When you book your tickets for the event you will be asked to give some background information on the project you are looking to support:

A few descriptive sentences about your project

How much money are you looking to raise via your crowdfunding campaign?

When are you planning to carry out your crowdfunding campaign?

What is unique about this project for your organisation that will appeal to your target audience?
