Donation to Bury Lit Festival
It is our goal to present a diverse and accessible programme for all; with our values of inclusivity, sustainability and community in mind. In a world where cuts to the arts are rampant, this can only be achieved through a mixed model of earned revenue, public funding, corporate sponsorship and private philanthropy. Every penny we receive in support will go towards our Outreach programme for schools and subsidising tickets for under 18s, students and those experiencing hardship.
