Artsmark Opportunities with Theatre31

Artsmark Funding for Medway Schools

In partnership with ROH Bridge, Icon and Theatre31 are pleased to support 10 Medway schools to earn Artsmark accreditation, funding 50% of the £500 cost. This funding is for new schools who have not completed Artsmark before and have yet to submit a statement of interest.
