The Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation is now a National Portfolio Organisation!!!!
The Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation has achieved a remarkable milestone in its growth and development by securing £351k as a National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) from The Arts Council England. This funding will sustain and support the foundation's primary youth programs for the next three years, starting in April 2023.
“As Co-Founders of Ruff Sqwad Arts, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Arts Council England for recognising our organisation's commitment to providing meaningful programs and training to support aspiring young creatives to reach their full potential. Having grown up in East London, we understand the challenges aspiring creatives face in the pursuit of sustainable creative arts careers, we are proud to be dedicated to answering young people's needs and look forward to continuing to do so alongside the Arts Council England.” Prince & Ebs
