This morning we had a visit from Simon Fitch of the Arts Council. He is the Senior Manager, Funding Programmes of the Arts Council England, based in Nottingham.
He arrived at 11am and gave us an hour and a half of his time. We showed him the inside of the Grand Pavilion as well as Charles Beresford’s presentation of the history of the Pavilion.
We had a long talk about organisation and operation of the Grand Pavilion. I think we were able to impress him that this plan is viable and will happen, with help for some of the funding bodies.
We will talk again soon and I hope the outcome will be the start of an application for finance from the new fund being launched in the next couple of months.
Thanks also to Les Small and Laura Smith for helping to add to this successful visit.
