Crowdfunding Campaign Launched to make Ely Arts Festival 2021 Shine!

The Ely Arts Festival committee have launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise £1000 to ensure the success of this years’ event and strengthen its foundations for future years. 

Run by a voluntary committee, the festival has been brought together despite the uncertainties of Covid, to provide residents and visitors to Ely with a vibrant programme of arts and cultural events and activities over a two-week period. 

People are invited to make a donation to the crowdfunding campaign and will be rewarded with tokens of appreciation ranging from public thanks, to poetry books, to annual membership of the festival. 

Chris Parsons, chairperson of Ely Arts Festival explains: ‘We’re really excited to be launching the festival again in 2021 but we need your help to support the events we are putting on. This is a great opportunity to support engaging, accessible and family friendly arts activities in Ely and the surrounding area, please do consider making a small donation or even sharing the page on social media to get our campaign as far and wide as possible! We hope to see lots of people at our events in June.”

People can find out more about the festival events and the crowdfunding campaign on www.elyartsfestival.org.
