Trusts and Foundations

Trusts and foundations

The RWA is an independent charity (1070163) and, as from April 2024, we will receive no public subsidy, totally dependent on earned and fundraised income. The support of Trusts and Foundations is essential for us to run a life-enhancing  programme of activities for people in some of Bristol's most underserved communities, as well as our programme of exhibitions, bringing world-class art to the city and region, and giving exhibiting opportunities to emerging talents from diverse backgrounds.

Further information

For more information on our work and how your trust or foundation can support the Royal West of England Academy, please contact Kate Foster, Head of Development (kate.foster@rwa.org.uk)
