The Ashden Trust Annual Report 2009

Arts and Sustainability

What do we support?

We continue to promote awareness of the developing field of environmental art, and in particular, drama, through its website, the Ashden Directory of Environment and Performance. The directory can be found at www.ashdendirectory.org.uk .

Within this category, the Trust is working with arts organisations to help them cut their carbon footprints, and to prepare their public for the implementation of measures which will improve sustainability. We also help organisations which, through the medium of literature and the arts, draw attention to environmental issues.

What kind of projects have we funded?

Cape Farewell

A grant towards raising awareness about global warming by bringing together artists, scientists and communicators to stimulate the production of art founded in scientific research. Click on the link below to visit their website.
