Our Cooperation with non-cultural organisations
...and how you can support our future!
Is there a role for the private sector in a heavily subsidised cultural sector?
The answer, of course, is yes! And that is the topic that we delve into on this month’s episode of our podcast – How to Build a Theatre.
For the October episode, Phil and Edward have been talking to Mare de Wit, who is responsible for the Brussels region at the nonprofit, Promethea. Promethea, founded in the 1980s, builds links (or bridges, if you like) between business and cultural organisations.
Phil, Edward and Marie, compare and contrast the historical differences in cultural funding between the UK and Belgium, which, as they discover, reflects wider structural differences in the economies of the two countries.
The episode is out today and you can listen on all major platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.
Become a Supporter!
Did you know that we have a patron scheme?
Our Individual Patron scheme is our internal crowdfunding campaign. We need funding to help us buy or rent the equipment we need and pay for services that are vital to the operation of our organisation.
But your financial support is worth more to us than a practical donation. We see it as a mark of approval, a signal that we are on the right track and that we have the support of you, the people of Brussels, to keep persevering through the beloved quagmire that is the Belgian system.
As a sign of our appreciation, Individual Patrons are entitled to rewards, such as opportunities to meet our actors, exclusive access to rehearsals and the chance to participate in our workshops. You can find the full range of rewards on our Individual Patrons webpage.
