Creation of a museum

The request was successful.

Dear Arts Council of Wales,

Would your department be responsible for funding of museums. If so what process would people have to go through to start getting funding from yourselves?

Yours faithfully,

Jonathan Mantle

Dear Jonathan Mantle

 

Thank you for your request for information below.

 

The Arts Council of Wales is the main development and funding body for
contemporary art in Wales, and we therefore would not provide funding
towards museums.

 

In the first instance we would suggest you contact The Museums, Archives
and Libraries Division at Welsh Government. They are the development body
for museums in Wales and provide  core funding towards  museums. Their
contact details are:

 

Email: [1][email address]

Phone: 0300 062 2112

Website: [2]Museums, Archives and Libraries  

 

Alternatively, if you are seeking project funding, you may also find
Heritage Lottery Fund a useful source of information. Their contact
details are

If I can be of any more assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
