Funding brought to life.
“The Musician Experience was proud to secure £30,000 in funding, and we honestly couldn’t have done it without the support of ArtsFunded. The whole process felt straightforward and stress-free.”
“My draft read really well and was the perfect starting point. It honestly lifted a massive weight from my shoulders.”
“Hi Matt, wow. That was quick. I am in AWE of you and your clever machine.”
“This is amazing, from the actual application draft right down to the data report. Matt just totally gets it.”
“I would still be procrastinating if not for the help of @artsfunded. I paid for it, and it’s genuinely worth it!”
Funding outcome reported by the client. Every application and funder decision is different; ArtsFunded does not guarantee an award.
Meet Matt.
I’m Matthew Simmonds, Co-Artistic Director of Strange Futures and a working fundraiser, theatre maker, movement director, performer and facilitator. I built ArtsFunded after years of writing applications from both sides of the form.
The prompts come from real funder guidance, real deadlines and the practical details assessors actually need: public benefit, access, budgets, outcomes, risk and evidence.
