The Plough Arts Centre wins national award supporting arts philanthropy
The Plough Arts Centre has won a national award recognising two generous benefactors for their support of young people in North Devon.
Claire and Ray Gard gave a bursary to enable young people suffering hardship to attend Plough Youth Theatre. This was their first ever venture into arts philanthropy and qualified them to be entered for the Achates Philanthropy prize.
The Plough is on a journey to make our centre as accessible and inclusive as possible. We are relatively accessible to our audiences but we would like to make our backstage area and dressing rooms open to all performers, enabling us to welcome and support both disabled and non-disabled artists.
We’d like to extend our work with everyone from some nationally renowned dance companies to local drama and movement groups.
