Artsadmin is one of nearly 40 UK organisations to have been awarded funding this year from the EU’s Creative Europe fund for collaborative cultural projects with European partners. The UK continues to be one of the most partnered countries for ‘Cooperation Projects’ Creative Europe’s Culture sub-programme and there has even been a 14% increase in UK involvement compared to 2017.
