Arts Development Partnership Funding 2002/03 and 2003/04
Report of the Director of Recreation and Heritage
Contact: Michael Fuller Ext: 6016
1. Introduction
1.1 This report presents details of applications received for festival, project and two for one partnership funding from groups planning to organise arts projects for Hampshire residents.
1.2 A wide range of project proposals have been received for 2002/03. Publicity has sought to attract applications involving the priority artforms namely visual arts, crafts, literature and lens based media. The full list of applications received is attached in Appendix 2 supported by the budgets provided by each applicant with details of funding from other bodies where relevant. In each case the local member has been consulted and no specific issues have been raised.
1.3 Prospective festival grant applicants were invited to apply in December to enable them to plan ahead with some certainty over their funding and to ensure that Hampshire County Council funding is credited in the advance publicity. The details provided by the applicants for festival support are included in Appendix 2.
1.4 The County Council continues to run the Two For One Award Scheme, a very successful initiative that fosters a positive relationship between business and the arts as well as making the grant funding stretch further. The scheme works by matching new sponsorships valued between £200 and £500 and provides a useful incentive to arts organisations to find more sponsors. This also encourages more local businesses to sponsor the arts in Hampshire. Applications for this scheme are detailed in Appendix 3.
2. Legal Implications
2.1 The County Council is able to utilise broad powers under the Local Government Act 1972 to provide financial support for the arts. In particular, Section 145 of the Act enables the Council to contribute towards the expenses of doing anything necessary or expedient for any of a number of purposes, including the provision of entertainment of any nature, or the provision of a theatre, concert hall, dance hall or other premises suitable for entertainment. The powers include the ability to contribute towards the expenses of maintaining a band or orchestra, and towards the development and improvement of the knowledge, understanding and practice of the arts.
3. Financial Details
3.1 The base budget of £68,600 for 2002/03 is allocated as follows:

3.2 A financial summary is shown in Appendix 1a. Prior to this meeting an overall sum of £1,950 is available for distribution.
4. Project Partnership Funding
4.1 The applications for the support of arts projects are listed in Appendix 2 and include specific requests for £7,685. Demand has exceeded the budget for this financial year and it is recommended that funding for applications A04 and A05 is taken from the budget for financial year 2003/04. Funding recommendations totalling £950 for financial year 2002/03 and £2,200 for financial year 2003/04 are proposed as set out in Appendix 2. The papers in the Appendix show details of all applications and they are prefixed with the letter A. Local Members have been consulted on these applications.
5. Festival Partnership Funding
5.1 It will be noted from the summary in Appendix 2 that applications have been received from ten festival organisations. Having assessed the strength of the applications, festivals to the value of £12,550 have been identified that could be supported. The financial details for next year's budget are found in the attached Appendix 1b. The recommendations are based on the expectation that the budget for the year 2003/04 will be at least the same as for the current year, but without the additional £1,600 found within the 2002/03 budget. This is also true of the funding of £10,000 contained within the Policy and Resources budget for the Economic Strategy for the Arts. Confirmation of these figures will be forthcoming in the new year. It is recommended that this funding is confirmed as having first call on the partnership funding budget and therefore can be confirmed after this decision. Additional festival partnership funding applications are expected later in the year. It should be noted that funds are not released to festival organisations until satisfactory accounts for previous years are received.
5 Two For One Award Scheme
5.1 Applications totalling £1,000 have been received and the details of these are shown in Appendix 3. These awards can be made retrospectively for arts events where an organisation has attracted first time sponsorship from a company. It is recommended that full matching amounts be made to the applications due to the great success of this scheme in attracting other revenue funding for the arts.
Recommendation
That the awards recommended in this report be approved.

Jaqueline Gray Hampshire Dance Trust
Purpose For Which Assistance Is Sought
Man Jumping is a three year programme of work by Hampshire Dance aimed at
encouraging boys in the 12 to 18 age range to dance. This application is to support
a project within that programme that uses dance and movement combined with
animation through motion capture, a technique used in the video games industry to
translate human movement into animated form. Boys will be able to use their own
movement to drive animated figures which will form part of an animated video
projection to accompany a live group performance at The Point in Eastleigh. The
project will take place in February 2003 and will launch a three-year development
plan for boys in dance.

The Basingstoke Mysteries is a collaboration between Proteus, the Haymarket

to broaden access to the arts and foster a sense of identity and pride of place
