Over 1,900 artists and music professionals have come together to sign @the_smia Open Letter on the Culture Funding Crisis. The letter is being sent today – @creativescots Open Fund for Individuals is now closed. We urge the Scottish Government to immediately reinstate Creative Scotland’s Open Fund for Individuals and Youth Music Funds, and confirm the planned £25 million increase in cultural funding for 2025 will be secured by the start of the new financial year (1 April 2025). Culture funding is essential. #NoArtWithoutArtists @john_swinney_snp @scotgov @angusrobertsonmsp
